SYMBIOSIS

Among the positive relationships we find symbiosis, also called mutualism. This interaction is a positive association between two or more organisms which results in a mutual benefit and even fusion.

Within an ecosystem, there are thousands of organisms that live in a constant relationship with their environment. Relationships also develop among them which can be positive or negative depending on the type of objective/need assumed by each one of them. A negative relationship (predation of parasitism) happens when one of the organisms gets the bigger share of the benefit in the relationship, that is to say, the association is destructive for one of its members.

Among the positive relationships we find symbiosis, also called mutualism. This interaction is a positive association between two or more organisms which results in a mutual benefit and even fusion. According to biology experts, symbiosis has been key in the natural evolution, since cooperation is fundamental to achieve integral participation, good results and ultimately, survival.
