makanan (kutu) yang menempel ditubuh kerbau, sehingga kerbau merasa
diuntungkan karena kutu-kutu yang menempel ditubuhnya habis dimakan burung
jalak.
b. Hubungan bunga dan kupu-kupu

Kupu kupu mendapatkan keuntungan karena dapat menghisap madu (nektar).

Bungapun diuntungkan karena akan terbantu dalam penyerbukan.
c. Hubungan bunga dan lebah

Lebah mendapat untung karena menghisap madu (nektar) dan bunga mendapat
untung karena dibantu dalam penyerbukan.

e. Simbiosis apa yang terbentuk antara semut yang berada pada buah rambutan ?

2. Simbiosis Komensalisme

dirugikan.Berikut beberapa contoh simbiosis komensalisme :

dan yang satunya lagi dirugikan.
a. Tumbuhan umbai cacing/ tali putri dan tumbuhan inangnya

Tumbuhan umbai cacing (taliputri) medapat keuntungan karena

dapat mengambil makanan dari inangnya (yang ditumpanginya), sedangkan
tumbuhan inangnya lama kelamaan akan mati karena makanannya diserap oleh
