The student is expected to: describe and give examples of predatory, competitive, and symbiotic relationships between organisms, including mutualism, parasitism, and commensalism; and SCIENCE.BIO.13.A Science concepts. Interdependence within environmental systems. The student knows that interactions at various levels of organization occur within an ecosystem to maintain stability. The student is expected to: investigate and evaluate how ecological relationships, including predation, parasitism, commensalism, mutualism, and competition, influence ecosystem stability; #symbiosis #symbioticrelationships #mutualism #commentalism #parasitism #ecologicalrelationships #science #scienceforkids #ngss #teks
