Answer:

Mutualism - An interaction between two organisms in which both organisms benefit from.

Commensalism - An interaction between two organism in which one organism benefits from and the other organism neither benefits nor gets harmed.

Parasitism - An interaction between a parasite and an organism. In this interaction the parasite lives inside of the organism and causes potential harm to the host

Mimicry - imitation of another organism for survival

Explanation:

First lets define symbiosis

Symbiosis : Interaction between two organisms predominantly to benefit one or both of the organism

Now lets find the 4 types of symbiosis

The four major symbiotic relationships include mutualism, commensalism,  mimicry and parasitism

Now lets describe/define each symbiotic relationship

Mutualism - An interaction between two organisms in which both organisms benefit from.

An example would be sharks and remora fish. Remora fish keep the water fairly clear of scraps around the shark which prevents the development of unhealthy organisms resulting in a healthy shark. In return remoras receives a fairly convenient food source and they receive protection.

Commensalism - An interaction between two organism in which one organism benefits from and the other organism neither benefits nor gets harmed.

An example would be frogs and plants. Frogs use plants for protection and the plants way of life does not change in any way

Parasitism - An interaction between a parasite and an organism. In this interaction the parasite lives inside of the organism and causes potential harm

An example would be fleas and dogs. Fleas live off of the blood in the organism (the dog in this case). Consequently the dog experiences hair loss, scratching, and irritated skin.

lord [1]

Answer:

Some areas of the Everglades have dried up.

Explanation:

These changes have caused some areas of the Everglades to have dried up. The everglades were known as the wetlands due to the massive flooding that occurred often but these canals made it so that water would not flow into some of the areas in the Wetlands. Therefore, since water never reached these areas they quickly began drying up and making the ground infertile due to the lack of water which the plants need to survive.
