	Amensalism
		Amensalism is an biological interaction, a type of symbiosis, between two species in which one impedes or restricts the success of the other without being affected, positively or negatively, by the presence of the other.
		Usually this occurs when one organism exudes a chemical compound as part of its normal metabolism that is detrimental to another organism.
		Plants in certain biomes, such as the chaparral or desert, are very dependent on the effects of amensalism.

	Amensalism Summary
		Beneath dense colonies of such species as cormorants and herons, the trees in which their nests are built, and most of the associated understorey vegetation, may be killed by the toxic excrement of the birds.
		The fl walnut may receive a benefit in terms of their competitive relationship with larger plants, but there is no significant benefit from the damage caused to smaller plants of low abundance, such as mosses, ferns, and other low-growing vegetation.
		Amensalism is a biological interaction, a type of symbiosis, between two species in which one impedes or restricts the success of the other without being affected, positively or negatively, by the presence of the other.

	Amensalism \| World of Biology
		Amensalism refers to a relationship between two species in which one of the partners is inhibited, while the other is not affected in any significant way.
		Usually, the inhibited species is damaged by a chemical released by the other one into their shared environment.
		One natural example of amensalism involves the growth of vegetation in the vicinity of breeding colonies of certain kinds of waterbirds.

		Symbiosis: Properly, it is a neutral term, meaning "the living together in close association of two dissimilar organisms." It has the implication that the relationship is beneficial to the organisms involved, but that is properly a mutualistic relationship.
		Mutualism, commensalism, amensalism and parasitism are all types of symbiotic relationships.
		Amensalism: A symbiotic relationship in which one partner is harmed and the other is unaffected.

		Amensalism is an association between organisms of two DIFFERENT SPECIES in which one is inhibited or destroyed and the other is unaffected.
		The composition of deserts is largely dependent on such antibiotic associations between species, which results in stable communities that have been freed of competition for scarce water.
		Sometimes amensalism is used only as a term for animal interactions where one animal is harmed and the other is unaffected (a 0/1 interaction).

		AMENSALISM: Association which is detrimental to one species and neutral to the other.
		In amensalism, the unaffected population releases agents such as antibiotics that restrict the the growth of the other population.
		There is some overlap between amensalism and competition, although the latter must be a two-way process.

		Amensalism describes the biological relationship in which one species is not affected by the association, but the other species, by accident, is hurt by it.
		Amensalism is usually contrasted with parasitism, in which the parasite purposely lives off the host and saps the host's strength.
		It is bad for humans because of the economic and health problems created by large populations of dogs, and at the same time it is bad for dogs.

		The type with the most negative impacts for both species involved is called ‘competition.’; Both organisms experience negative effects from their interaction.
		This tends to naturally follow into neutralism (where neither organism gains nor loses) or amensalism (where one loses and the other experiences no effect).
		Amensalism becomes predation when one organism experiences a negative effect while the other benefits from the interaction.

		Steady state is understood as the phase of an ecological systems evolution when the organisms are "balanced" with each other and their environment.
		This balance is achieved through various types of interaction, such as predation, parasitism, mutualism, commensalism, competition, or amensalism.
		Introduction of new elements, whether abiotic or biotic, into an ecosystem tend to have a disruptive effect.

		Some scientists believe that many multicellular organisms evolved from symbiotic relationships between unicellular ones and that the DNA-containing organelles within certain eukaryotic cells (such as mitochondria and chloroplasts) are the product of symbiotic relationships in which the participants became interdependent.

		Mutualism - one species uses another as shelter, transport, food, or protection which helps the other species (because the other species uses the first as food, transport, shelter or protection)
		Note that amensalism really isn't an "interaction" at all, since neither species has an effect on the other.
		In reality, probably all species have some effect on the species they live with, although the effect may be so small as to be insignificant.

		A seasonal change in the species composition of spider mites, from Panonychus ulmi to Tetranychus urticae, is observed in apple trees worldwide.
		Using manipulation experiments in an orchard, we tested whether this seasonal change in species composition occurred as the result of interspecific competition between these spider mites.
