Question

How is parasitism similar to and different from predation?​

Answer 1

Answer AND Explanation:

Predation and parasitism both involve one organism benefiting at the expense of the other. The difference is that predation is when the organism gets captured and eaten while parasitism is when the host gets harmed by the parasite.

Predation involves killing of the prey while parasitism does not necessarily involve killing since the parasite can live temporarily or permanently in the host or on the host.
