- In an ecosystem, there must be interactions between the various species in order for the organisms to survive and continue the circle of life. Every ecosystem has to have these interactions or that ecosystem will not survive. These interactions are called symbioses.
- There are a total of three types of biotic symbioses: Mutualism, Parasitism
- Parasitism is the interaction between two species where only one benefits from the other organism and the other is harmed in return. The one that benefits from the other organism is called a parasite, while the organism that is being harmed is called a host

Answer:
hello kidddaaa jiiiii..
Here you go.
Mutualism is the interaction between two or more organisms where both organisms can benefit from the interaction. ... Parasitism is the interaction between two species where only one benefits from the other organism and the other is harmed in return.
Explanation:
Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship in which both species benefit. Commensalism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species benefits while the other species is not affected. Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species (the parasite) benefits while the other species (the host) is harmed.
