A tick biting a dog to feed on its blood is an example of parasitism, where one organism (the tick) benefits at the expense of the other (the dog). The tick obtains nutrients from the dog's blood while potentially causing harm or discomfort to the dog.
Paratism, in which the dog would be the host and the tick would be the parasite, because it depends on the dogs blood.
This is an example of a parasitic relationship. In this relationship, the tick benefits from feeding on the dog's blood while the dog is harmed by the tick's presence.
they suck it up ^^^To improve on the above answer. Ticks bite into the host animal. Their saliva contains a mild antiseptic - which stops the host animal noticing the parasites bite. The tick then draws blood from the host animal by way of a long, tube-like structure. Once the tick is full, it drops off the host to digest its meal, then finds another host.
The dog would be a host to the tick.
