A common symbiotic relationship in nature is mutualism, where two different species interact in a way that benefits both parties. A classic example of mutualism is the interaction between bees and flowering plants. Bees collect nectar and pollen from flowers for food, while simultaneously transferring pollen from one flower to another, aiding in plant reproduction. This relationship enhances the survival of both species, as bees obtain nourishment, and plants benefit from improved pollination, leading to seed and fruit production. Mutualistic relationships are vital for biodiversity and ecosystem health.
