Solution

The correct option is A Parasitism
Parasitism is a type of population interaction in which one organism lives on or inside another organism. The former is a parasite and the latter is a host. Parasite thrives on the food of the host and takes away its nutrition. Thus the parasite benefits. But the host is harmed.
So, option A is the correct answer.
