Vedclass · Answer

(A) Parasitism is a type of population interaction where one organism (the parasite) benefits at the expense of another (the host). Parasites typically evolve to be host-specific and often do not kill the host immediately because the host provides both nutrition and shelter. While parasites reduce the host's fitness by lowering their survival,growth,and reproductive rates,and by making them physically weak,causing the immediate death of the host is generally not a characteristic feature of a successful parasite-host relationship,as the parasite would lose its source of food and habitat.
