What does symbiosis mean?
A close and often long-term relationship between different biological species, in which one species, the symbiont, lives in close association with another species, the host, and the two have a close and often interdependent relationship.
Example
"The coral reef is an example of symbiosis, where coral animals live in close association with single-celled algae that provide them with nutrients."
