Detailed explanation-1: -The symbiotic relationship between the oxpecker and the hooved host is known as mutualism. The birds have a steady supply of food and the host benefits from the removal of parasites from its body. The tiny oxpecker is tolerated because of this win/win relationship. The Cape Buffalo is renowned for its grumpy demeanor.
Detailed explanation-2: -If we were in the warm waters of the Pacific or Indian Oceans, we’d likely spot an excellent example of mutualism: the relationship between clownfish and sea anemones. In a mutualistic relationship, both species benefit. Sea anemones live attached to the surface of coral reefs.
Detailed explanation-3: -About 100 species of New Zealand flowering plants are pollinated by birds. Some birds and plants benefit from each other in a relationship called mutualism. Birds get food (nectar and fruit) from the plants, while the plants get pollinated and have their seeds spread to new places.
