Solution

The correct option is D
mutualism - both species are harmed

Predation is an interaction during which one organism preys on the other organism for food. Commensalism is an interaction where one organism benefits while the other is unaffected. Parasitism is the mode of interaction between the two species in which one species (parasite) depends on the other species (host) for food and shelter and damages the host. Mutualism is a relationship where both the organisms involved benefit from the relationship, for eg. flowers and the bee.
