http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organism
In biology and ecology, an organism (in Greek organon = instrument) is a living complex adaptive system of organs that influence each other in such a way that they function in some way as a stable whole.

well, most plants instects and animals are superorganisms.

they use other organisms to survive (like ecoli in the human intestines)

A superorganism is an organism consisting of many organisms. This is usually meant to be a social unit of eusocial animals, where division of labour is highly specialised and where individuals are not able to survive by themselves for extended periods of time.
