Mutualism- Flower and Butterfly


Mutualism- 4:02 p.m., August 1st, on a butterfly bush in my garden. The way two organisms of different species interact biologically (resource-resource, service-resource, and service-service). Some examples are sea anemones and hermit crabs. The anemones give protection to the crab and the crab then allows the anemone to eat the remainder of its food.  Butterflies are an example of service-resource mutualism, which is that the flower provides the food for the butterfly.
