According to this video the most intellingent animals are the pig, the crow, the dolphin, the monkey and the elephant.

 In my opinion the pig and the elephant are not as smart as presented. The pig ,for example, isn't very smart because it eats pretty much everything you give it, so you could just  feed it something poisonous and it would still eat it without actually smelling to see if there's anything wrong. Speaking about the elephant just because it has the biggest brain doesnt mean that it's very smart.

 On the other side we have some smart animals as the dolphin, the crow and the chimpanzee. The dolphin can be tamed and is able to communicate with the others. Crows seem to have a specific way of communication, too. Chimpanzees can mime actions done by people.

on behalf of = in numele ...

*  I am talking here on behalf of my children who are minors. 

symbiosis = simbioza

Symbiosis is living together. 

 The bee and the flower have a kind of symbiosis called mutualism , meaning both partners have benefits. 

Commensalism is the type of relationship between the whale shark and a real shark in which only the first have benefits while the latter doesn't even notice the other presence. 

Parasitism is the situation when a being lives on or in another being making this uncomfortable or sick. 

Homework
