The correct answer is A) A host is killed slowly by its predator while a prey is killed instantly.

Prey-predator is a non-specific relationship between individuals of different populations. In this relationship prey is killed outright. Example, a tiger kills a deer. But in parasite-host relationship is specific. Example, mosquitoes feed on human blood. The parasitism differs from predation in that the host are seldom killed instantly but may live on for some times.

Describe the structure and components of a DNA molecule
Inessa [10]
The DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the double helical in structure. It has two anti parallel strands of long polynucleotides. The nucleotides are two purines ( adenine and guanine) and two pyrimidines ( thymine and cytosine). These purines and pyrimidines are attached with their complementary. Adenine pairs with the thymine with the two hydrogen bonds and the guanine pair with cytosine by three hydrogen bonds. The two strands are twisted which is responsible for the helical structure. The overall charge on the DNA molecule is the negative charge.
