two organisms in a symbiotic relationship. mutualism: both organisms benefit from this relationship. i.e.: african ants and acacia trees. the acacia tree provides a habitat for the ants to nest and colonize, while the aggressive ants protect the tree from potential predators by releasing a foul-smelling odour as well as physically attacking the predator.

It is a symbiotic relationship in which both the partners are benefitted by each other. The classical example is that of the symbiotic relationship between Root nodule bacteria (Rhizobium) and roots of legumes. The Rhizobia fixes the atmospheric Nitrogen and makes it available for the plant while the plant provides space and nutrition for the bacterium to survive , grow and multiply.
