Bonus Photos
This photo contains several species, for example; barnacles, starfish, lemon nudibranch, beetles and dead man's fingers.
This photo represents a mutualistic relationship between a mussel and barnacles. It is mutualistic because the mussel is receiving protection from predators that would try and eat it, because the barnacles are tough and sharp. The barnacles are given a safe, sturdy surface to attach to, as well as receiving food particles from the mussel.
