Education

"...for the crocodile, when he leaves the water and comes out upon the land, is in the habit of lying with his mouth wide open, facing the western breeze: at such times the trochilus goes into his mouth and devours the leeches. This benefits the crocodile, who is pleased, and takes care not to hurt the trochilus." - Herodotus

Nilo graduated from Float Academy of the Nile River (FANR).

Mutualistic Symbiosis

Definition: The way two organisms of different species exist in a relationship in which each individual benefits.

  • Developed between organisms with widely differing living requirements.

Example: The myth of the Nile Crocodile and the Egyptian Plover states that when the Nile Crocodile keeps its mouth open, the Egyptian Plover hops right into its mouth and eats the food that is stuck between its teeth. The food can cause pain when it rots so both species benefit with this arrangement. Because the Plover is helping the Crocodile the Crocodile doesn't harm it.

Tubeworms and Sulfur Oxidizing Bacteria

Symbiotic Relationship: Mutualistic

  • The tube worm depends on the bacteria living inside them for their food and energy source. (since they don't have sunlight)
  • The bacteria gains the nutrients it needs from the tube worms plume (the organ that exchanges compounds such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, etc.)
  • They could not survive without each other.

Additional facts: the food that the bacteria makes feeds not only the tube worms but the clams, crabs, and other organisms living near the vents.
