Solution
The correct option is C Predation
The biotic components of a living environment are independent. Predation is an interaction where a predator (an organism that is hunting) attacks its prey (the organism that is attacked) and harms to retrieve energy from the prey. Parasitism is a non-mutual symbiotic relationship between species, where one species, the parasite, benefits at the expense of the other, the host. Symbiosis is close and often long-term interaction between two different biological species. Scavenging is the process of feeding on the other dead animal.
Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
