Symbiosis is generally defined as a relationship where members of two or more species live in extremely close contact with each other. This term encompasses various types of interactions, including mutualism (where both organisms benefit), commensalism (where one benefits and the other is not affected), and parasitism (where one benefits and the other is harmed).
