in biology, term for the interdependence of different species, which are sometimes called symbionic. There are three main types of symbiosis, based upon the specific relationship between the species involved: mutualism, parasitism, and commensalism.

Symbiosis that results in mutual benefit to the interdependent organisms is commonly known as mutualism. An example of mutualism is the coexistence of certain species of algae and fungi that together compose lichens.

Symbiosis simply means living together. A husband and a wife, for example, have a symbiotic relationship. Symbiotic is the adjective form of the noun symbiosis. There are of course several different types of symbiotic relationship. For example, one type is parasitism. A worm that lives in the gut of another animal and feeds off of the host is a parasite. There are also more benign forms of symbiotic relationship, such as the mutualistic or mutually benefiicial relationship between coral and algae. Some algae live within coral colonies, and provide the coral with oxygen and nutrients in the form of glucose and other similar substances. The coral, which are animals and the skeletons of their ancestors, provide the algae a place to live and anchor themselves. Do not confuse symbiosis with interactions between organisms. For example, two organisms can be mutualistic (i.e. benefit one another) without ever living together. A bee, for example, may only pay a visit to a flower for a few seconds or a few minutes, but pollinates the plant while doing so, and the flower provides nectar for the bee. The relationship or interaction is mutualistic, but they by no means are symbiotic. They don't live together.
