Self-propelled movement of a cell or organism from one location to another. Penetration by an organism into the body, tissues, or cells of the host organism. The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction. Any process by which an organism modulates the frequency, rate or extent to which it enters into a second organism, where the two organisms are in a symbiotic interaction. Penetration by an organism into the body, tissues, or cells of a second organism, where the two organisms are in a symbiotic interaction. Penetration by an organism into a second organism via naturally occurring openings in the second organism, where the two organisms are in a symbiotic interaction. The directed movement of an organism or motile cell on, within or near a second organism, where the two organisms are in a symbiotic interaction. Penetration by an organism into a second organism via active breaching of physical barriers, where the two organisms are in a symbiotic interaction. The invasion by an organism of a cell of a second organism, where the two organisms are in a symbiotic interaction. An interaction between two organisms living together in more or less intimate association. The term host is usually used for the larger (macro) of the two members of a symbiosis. The smaller (micro) member is called the symbiont organism. Microscopic symbionts are often referred to as endosymbionts. The various forms of symbiosis include parasitism, in which the association is disadvantageous or destructive to one of the organisms; mutualism, in which the association is advantageous, or often necessary to one or both and not harmful to either; and commensalism, in which one member of the association benefits while the other is not affected. However, mutualism, parasitism, and commensalism are often not discrete categories of interactions and should rather be perceived as a continuum of interaction ranging from parasitism to mutualism. In fact, the direction of a symbiotic interaction can change during the lifetime of the symbionts due to developmental changes as well as changes in the biotic/abiotic environment in which the interaction occurs.
