Identify the interaction used to describe each type of interdependence among organisms.


The red-billed oxpecker (a bird) eats ticks off the fur of an impala (a type of antelope). The oxpecker receives food and removes the ticks from the impala.

Titan triggerfish move large rocks in the ocean to find food. In return, smaller fish are able to eat because the moved rocks expose food. The titan triggerfish are not affected.

The interaction between red-billed oxpecker and impala is mutualism. The interaction between titan triggerfish and smaller fishes is commensalism.

Mutualism and Commensalism

Mutualism is a form of symbiotic interaction between two organisms in which both organisms benefit from the interaction without being negatively affected in any way.

Commensalism, on the other hand, is a form of interaction between two organisms in which one (the commensal) gains and the other neither benefits nor lose from the interaction.

The red-billed oxpecker gets its food off the fur of the Impala. The tick that serves as food for red-billed oxpecker is a parasite that harms the impala. Thus, the red-billed oxpecker gets its food while the impala gets the ticks that can harm it removed. A mutually beneficial relationship.

The activities of the Titan triggerfish benefit smaller fishes. The Titan triggerfish neither benefits nor gets harmed in the interaction. A form of commensalism.
