Summary: This week in class we learned about symbiosis. Symbiosis is an interaction between animals that can: Help, Harm, or Do nothing to an animal in the interaction. There are three types of symbiosis: Mutualism, Commensalism, and Parasitism. Mutualism is when two organisms benefit from an inter action, like in the sea where small animals clean out the mouths of larger animals, which gives them food. Commensalism is when one animal benefits and nothing happens to the other, like when Orchids grow on trees, the Orchids are getting sunlight and the trees are unaffected. Lastly, Parasitism is when one animal benefits and the other is harmed, like how leaches and suck your blood, which can lead to death.
SP1: Asking questions and defining problems
This week in class we asked about what the different types of symbiosis do. We asked specifically about how they affected the animals involved and if it helped, harmed, or did nothing to the animal in question. We also asked why do animals need to depend of each other to survive in the world because wouldn't it be better if there was more of the animal rather than it being hunted for food.
