In Biology, mutualism is an interaction between two organisms that is beneficial to both of them. Like ants and an aphid. A number of ants are found by or near aphids. The ants feed on the sugary fluid released by the aphids, and the aphids are protected by the ants.

What is the type of community interaction that involves one species living in or on another organism and harming the organism?
parasitism
How is symbiosis different from a predator prey relationships?
The three forms of symbiosis are mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism. Mutualism describes the interaction of two organisms in a way that is beneficial to both of them. Commensalism describes the interaction of two organisms in a way that benefits one and neither harms nor helps the other. Parasitism describes the interaction of two organisms in a way that benefits one and harms the other. So, the difference from predation is clear in regards to mutualism and commensalism. Predation differs from parasitism in that predation involves a larger creature claiming the life of another for its benefit, whereas parasitism typically involves smaller creatures and may or may not require the victim to die.

The positive interaction is mutualism The negative interactions are parasitism and competition The neutral interactions are commensalism, amensalism, and neutralism
