(<em>Symbiosis is any long-term relationship between two or more species. Mutualism is a type of symbiosis, as is commensalism and parasitism.<\/em>)<\/p>\n<p>2) Another misconception students may believe that predation is similar to parasitism in that one organism benefits and the other is harmed. Students will be reminded that symbiosis is a long-term relationship between organisms, thus excluding the short-term relationship in predation. Use of the terms parasite and host will help to differentiate between parasitism and predation, as will thorough examples. In parasitism the host remains alive.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>An interactive lab is scheduled for this week where students will have an organism and find their symbiotic match and identify whether the match is a mutualistic relationship, parasitic relationship or a commensalistic relationship.<\/li>\n<li>One homework assignment will be posted on Google Classroom where students will color code the different symbiotic relationships among organisms.<\/li>\n<li>A class project will be introduced this week.<\/li>\n<li>Additional resource students will have access to in order to learn about symbiosis is included in the green Environmental Science textbook.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/my.hrw.com\/tabnav\/controller.jsp?isbn=0030304911\">https:\/\/my.hrw.com\/tabnav\/controller.jsp?isbn=0030304911\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Book E (Environmental Science), Chapter 1, section 3 starting at page 14 to 21.<\/p>\n<p>A copy of my lesson plans from planbook is attached below.
