Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. Mutualism

2.Parasitism

Explanation:

The ecological species interact with each other in an ecosystem which could prove either beneficial or harmful.

Mutualism or symbiotic association is the interaction between two species which prove beneficial to both the organisms.  

Parasitism is the interaction between two species which prove harmful to one species but beneficial to the other.

In the given question the interaction between the plants and the  <em>P. phylax</em> is mutualism as both the species get the benefit of each other whereas the interaction between the plants and the <em>C. mckeyi</em> is parasitism as plant species is negatively affected whereas the ant species is benefitted.

Thus, Mutualism and Parasitism is the correct answer.

If a group of one certain species are living in the same area they are a population. The same goes for humans, we are the same species and when we live in the same area we say we are part of a population. That’s why you would hear things like “the population of massachusetts is 2million” or whatever it is.
