Fig and wasp
Mutualism is an interaction between two organisms of different species in which both the partners are benefitted, with none of the two capable of living separately.
In many species of fig trees there is a relationship with the pollinator species of wasp. The female wasp uses the fruit not only as an oviposition site but uses the developing seeds within the fruit for nourishing its larvae. The wasp pollinates the fig inflorescence, while searching for suitable egg-laying sites. The fig returns this favour of pollination by offering the wasp some of its developing seeds, as food for the developing wasp larvae.

In cloning of cattle a fertilized egg is taken out of the mother's womb and
in the eight cell stage, cells are separated and cultured untill small embryos are formed which are implanted into the womb of other cows
in the eight cell stage the individual cells are separated under electrical field for further development in culture media
from this upto eight identical twins can be produced
the egg is divided into 4 pairs of cells which are implanted into the womb of other cows.
