 What have youlearnedfromgroup1?
 Verygood! Because theybenefitfromeach
other,howdo we call this?
 Verygood!
 Mutualismisa relationshipinwhichtwo
organismslive togetheranddependoneach

 What have youlearnedfromgroup2?
 Verygood!
 We call theirrelationshipascommensalism.
Commensalismisasymbioticrelationshipin
whichone organismbenefitswhile otheris

and the otheris harmed,we call this
