Question

Write one common feature among predation, parasitism and commensalism

Answer 1

Dear Student,

• Predation is the interaction between predator and prey. For eg. tiger and deer- One species is benefitted while the other is harmed.
• Parasitism is the interaction between parasite and host. When live inside host's body is known as endoparasite and if live outside body is known ectoparasite. In this also parasite is benefitted and host is harmed.
• Commensalism is the interaction between two species in ehich one species is benefitted while the other is neither harmed nor benefitted.

So the common characteristic would be that both organisms or interacting species live in close relation to each other.
