Tapeworm
Tapeworm and Human
Tapeworm eggs get inside the bodies of humans through contaminated
and undercooked meat. Tapeworm eggs hatch in the intestines and feed
off the nutrients of their host. The tapeworm absorbs nutrients from the
hose that would otherwise be used by the host.

Tick and Host
Ticks are blood-feeding arachnids that are often found in tall grass
where they will wait to attach to a passing host. A tick will attach itself
to its host by inserting its mandibles and feeding tube into the skin. A
tick will attach itself to a host organism and take blood from its host.

Fat Rich Bodies
Hollow Thorns
Ant and Acacia
In Central America, acacias produce large thorns that are hollow and shelter ants, which feed on a secretion nectar from
nectaries and fat-rich food-bodies at the tips of the leaflets. In return, the ants add protection to the plant against
herbivores. Some species of ants will also fight off competing plants around the acacia, cutting off the offending plant's
leaves with their jaws and ultimately killing it. Similar relationships with ants occur on Acacia trees in Africa, such as the
Whistling Thorn acacia. The acacias provide shelter for ants in the thorns and nectar for their ants. In turn, the ants protect
the plant by attacking large mammalian herbivores beetles that damage the plant.

Cuckoo and Reed Warbler
Female cuckoos watch Reed Warblers as they build their nests and lay eggs. At
the appropriate moment the mamma Cuckoo flies down to the reed warblers'
nest, pushes one Reed Warbler egg out of the nest, lays an egg and flies off!
Once hatched, the Cuckoo chick will roll the other eggs out of the nest by
pushing them with its back over the edge. This means it gets ALL the food from
the mamma reed warbler.

Zebra (Rhino) and Oxpecker
The oxpecker lands on the rhinos and zebras and eats ticks, parasites and
bugs that live on their skin. In addition to cleaning, the oxpeckers fly
upward and scream with warning when danger approaches

Honey Bee and Flower
The honey bee gets sweet nectar that the flowers produce to
attract them. When the bees get the nectar, some pollen sticks to
the bees and is carried to other flowers. Pollen gets carried from
flower to flower and helps the flowers reproduce.
