Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Parasitism is the relationship where one species benefits (parasite) and the other is harmed (host). In this relationship, the parasite gains nutrition from the host, often causing damage or even death to the host. Allelopathy refers to the process by which one species produces biochemicals to inhibit the growth and survival of another species. Mutualism is where both species benefit from the relationship, and protocooperation refers to where both species interact in a way that benefits both but are not dependent on each other.
