Answer 1

Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species benefits while the other is harmed. Commensalism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species benefits without affecting the other. Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship in which both species benefit.

Step-by-step explanation:

To match the terms with their correct descriptions we will identify each interaction based on provided definitions:

1. Commensalism: A relationship in which one species benefits while the other receives neither benefit nor harm.
2. Parasitism: One species benefits and individuals of the other species are harmed.
3. Mutualism: Both species benefit.
4. Endoparasites: Parasite that resides on the internal organs of the host.
5. Predation: The pursuit, capture, and killing of animals for food.
6. Food Chain: A simple model used to show how matter and energy moved through an ecosystem.
7. Symbiosis: Any close personal association among organisms of different species.
8. Ectoparasites: A parasite that feeds on the external part of a host.
9. Competition: Interaction between organisms or species in which both the organisms or species are harmed or not benefited.
10. Food Web: Model that shows all the possible feeding relationships at each trophic level in a community.
