Reef-building corals, bioluminescent fishes, and bumblebees and hummingbirds all rely on mutualisms for their survival. Reef-building corals provide a habitat for algae, which provide food for the corals. Bioluminescent fishes use bacteria to produce light, which attracts prey. Bumblebees and hummingbirds pollinate flowers, which helps the plants reproduce.
