Parasitism is considered a special type of predation, where predator is smaller than prey, although in most cases does not cause the death of the host. Parasites that live inside the hostвЂ™s body are called endoparasites (such as tapeworms), and those who live outside ectoparasites (lice). Read this post to learn more! Reed warbler (Acrocephalus scirpaceus) feeding a cuckooвЂ™s chick (Cuculus canorus). Fleas, ticks, pathogenic bacteria вЂ¦ are the best known, but there are also vertebrate parasites, like the cuckoo that lay their eggs in the nests of other birds, which will raise their chicks ( brood parasitism).В Especially interesting are the вЂњzombie parasitesвЂќ, which modify the behavior of the host. Parasitism: one species ( parasite) lives at the expense of other ( host) and causes it injury.Great white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) jumping to depretade a marine mamal, maybe a sea lion. This is the case of cats, wolves, sharks вЂ¦ Predation: occurs when one species ( predator) feeds on another ( prey).Photo by Mireia Querol One species has benefits and the other is detrimented: This relationship is very important in evolution, as it allows natural selection acts by promoting the survival and reproduction of the most successful species according to their physiology, behavior вЂ¦ Rainforests are a clear example of competition between vegetals in the search for light. Competition: occurs when one or more resources are limiting (food, land, light, soil вЂ¦).Symbiotic relationships can be beneficial to a species, both, or harmful to one of the two. T his interaction it is called symbiosis.

They are those that occur between individuals of different species. For survival, it is imperative that relations between them are established, sometimes beneficial and sometimes harmful. The biocenosis is formed in turn by different populations, which would be the set of individuals of the same species occupying an area. The group of all living beings in an ecosystem is called biocenosisor community. What types of relationships in addition to those you know? Do you feel like to know them? INTRODUCTION Predation, parasitism, competitionвЂ¦ all living beings, besides interacting with the environment, we relate to other living beings.
