A. Parasitism.This is a type of symbiotic relationship that is regarded as one-sided because the parasite benefits from the relationship but the host is negatively affected. In most cases, the parasite which is often smaller continues to live on or inside the host, obtaining nutrients from the host without necessarily killing it.
