Competition
Mutualism
Predation
Im think its (Predation) but im not sure...
ship emm! >:3
Where there is prey, there is likely to be a predator :)
You are correct! The type of relationship you are describing, where one organism benefits (the predator) while the other organism becomes prey, is called predation.
To determine the answer, you can understand these four types of relationships by their definitions:
1. Commensalism: In commensalism, one organism benefits while the other remains unaffected. There is no harm or benefit to the other organism.
2. Competition: Competition exists when two organisms or species fight or struggle over resources such as food, water, or shelter. In this relationship, both organisms are negatively affected since they are competing for the same limited resources.
3. Mutualism: Mutualism is a relationship where both organisms benefit from the interaction. They rely on each other for survival, such as in the case of pollinators and flowers.
4. Predation: Predation occurs when one organism, the predator, preys on another organism, the prey, for sustenance. Predation is characterized by capturing, killing, and consuming the prey.
Considering the given information, where one organism benefits (predator) and the other becomes prey, the correct answer is indeed "Predation." Well done!
