A species of bacteria found in the gut of cows is responsible for breaking down cellulose of the plant matter ingested by the cow. If the bacterial species escapes through the gut lining into the blood stream of the cow, the population can explode, resulting in harm to the cow. In this instance, the relationship between the cow and bacteria has shifted from a to a relationship. Parasitic; Parasitic Symbiotic; Parasitic O Mutualistic; Parasitic O Mutualistic; Commensalistic

Ecological Interactions

The study of the ecological interactions between living beings and their physical environment, including humans, is ecology. It aims to understand the crucial links between plants and animals and the world around them. Ecology also gives knowledge on the advantages of ecosystems and how we may use Earth resources to ensure that future generations have a healthy environment.
