what kind of species interaction is mutualism or commensalism
Mutualism is the way two organisms of different species exist in a relationship in which each individual benefits from the activity of the other.Similar interactions within a species are known as co-operation.Mutualism can be contrasted with interspecific competition, in which each species experiences reduced fitness, and exploitation, or parasitism, in which one species benefits at the expense of the other. Mutualism is a type of symbiosis. well-known example of mutualism is the relationship between ungulates (such as bovines) and bacteria within their intestines. The ungulates benefit from the cellulase produced by the bacteria, which facilitates digestion; the bacteria benefit from having a stable supply of nutrients in the host environment.
