A symbiotic organism can benefit or be harmed in a relationship depending on the nature of the interaction. For example, in a mutualistic relationship, both organisms benefit, while in a parasitic relationship, one organism benefits at the expense of the other.
That wouldn't be symbiosis. This situation is parasitism.
A symbiotic relationship where one organism benefits while the other is harmed is known as parasitism. In this type of interaction, the parasite derives nutrients and advantages from its host, often leading to the host's detriment or suffering. An example is a tapeworm living in the intestines of a mammal, where it absorbs nutrients at the host's expense, potentially causing malnutrition or illness in the host. This relationship highlights the imbalance in benefits and impacts within ecological interactions.
