Answer:

This relation should be called Predator-Prey relationship. In the predator prey relationship, one species is feeding on the other species. The prey species is the animal being fed on, and the predator is the animal being fed. they affect the success and survival of each other’s species. The predator prey relationships greatly affect the populations of each species, for example if we take lynx as predator and hare as prey after some time the population of hare will start declining and population of lynx will increase because hare is being EATEN and lynx is the predator here.
