Salmon are predators to shrimp.

This makes sense because a predator is an animal that hunts another animal to survive. Since salmon feed on shrimp, they must be a predator.

Additionally, we can eliminate the other possibilities by process of elimination:

-B is incorrect as a parasite is an organism that lives inside of another organism. Since salmon do not live inside of shrimp, this doesn't make sense.

-C is incorrect because a host is an organism that a parasite lives inside of. Since shrimp do not live inside of salmon, this also can be removed.

-D is incorrect because prey is an animal that is eaten by another animal. Since shrimp to not eat salmon, this can also be eliminated.

Therefore, A is our answer.

Hope this helps! :)
