    Parasitology: I. Biological Relationships

    Uploaded by

    Ellysa Senes
    Parasitology discusses biological relationships including symbiosis, which can be mutualism, commensalism, or parasitism. Mutualism benefits both species, like bees and flowers. Commensalism benefits one species without affecting the other, such as remoras hitching rides on sharks. Parasitism harms the host while benefiting the parasite, for example mosquitoes drinking human blood can cause illness in humans.

    PARASITOLOGY

    I. BIOLOGICAL RELATIONSHIPS
    SYMBIOSIS:

    Symbiosis is a close relationship between two species in which at least one species
    benefits. For the other species, the relationship may be positive, negative, or neutral. There are
    three basic types of symbiosis: mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism.

    THREE BASIC TYPES OF SYMBIOSIS:

    MUTUALISM

    Mutualism is a type of symbiotic relationship where all species involved benefit from their
    interactions. In other words, positive and positive.

    In mutualism relationship, the bees get to eat the follicles


    of the flower, and the flower plants get to reproduce.

    In mutualism relationship of human and dogs are the


    dogs supply protection and companionship to human and
    the human provide shelter and food to dogs.

    COMMENSALISM

    Commensalism is a relationship between indiviyof two


    species in which one species obtains food or other
    benefits from the other without either harming or benefiting the latter. In other words, it's
    positive and neural.

    The shark and remora commensalism relationship is the remora is carried along the shark's
    power. This allow remora to travel to different areas
    without

    having expend its own energy to swim, and also they get
    a protection from sea predator. Then the shark is not
    unaffected to the presence of remora.

    Clownfish and anemone commensalism relationship is the clownfish gets a protection and
    shelter to the anemone, while the anemone is unaffacted.

    The orchid and tree, the orchid gain benefits by the tree by
    getting nutrients, shelter, support or locomotion, and the the tree is not affect by the presence
    of orchid.

    The egret at the Carabao feeds on the ticks that


    suck the blood of the Carabao, the egret gets
    food by eating the ticks, at the same time, the
    Carabao gets cleaning of it's parasites. So, both
    of the egret and Carabao benefit from each
    other.

    PARASITISM

    Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship where are organism benefits from the association and
    the other is harmed. The organism that benefits is called the parasite, and the organism that is
    harmed is called the host.

    In parasitism relationship, the mosquito drink


    human blood, which can cause human to get itch and
    redness in skin or worse a dengue. The mosquito
    benefit and the human are harmed.

    In a parasitism relationship of tick and dog, the tick
    gains a food source by drinking the dogs blood and
    also the dog gets skin irritation. So the dog are
    harmed, and the ticks are benefit by the dog's blood.
