The symbiotic relationship between hookworms and humans is parasitism; which means when one benefits and the other is harmed.It is important to note that there are more recent studies showing that hookworms cause a reduction in some autoimmune, and chronic inflamatory disorders. This could be why there is almost no asthma in developing parts of the world with less prevelant plumbing.
The symbiotic relationship between a human head and lice is parasitism. This is because the lice get food and shelter but the head is itchy.
Mutualism
An example of a parasitic symbiotic relationship is a human and a tapeworm. The tapeworm gets nutrients and fat and all that from the food and the human is deprived of the food's nutrients.
Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship usually between two organisms where one benefits and one is harmed from the relationship. A good example is tape worms, which develop in the human stomach and eat the food the human consumes... so the tapeworm is benefitting from getting food but the human becomes sick since they aren't getting any nutrients!
The symbiotic relationship tapeworms demonstrate is parasitic. The tapeworm is a parasite, and other organisms that it feeds off of are hosts. For example; in humans tapeworms have an integument that allows the diffusion of nutrients of the intestine of the human to be absorbed to the tapeworm. Hope this helps!
predator - prey Actually Mosquitoes are often called micropredators, or intermittent parasites where they feed on a host then leave it. So technically it could be considered a symbiotic relationship where the human is the host and the mosquito is the symbiont.
This is an example of a parisitic relationship because the organism harms the host.
The answer is parasitism! Becuase the lice harms the human and only the lice benifits!
mutualism because the bacteria gets food and the human gets to decompose of certain foods
Parasitism for my opinion
It is a facultative mutualism.-------------------------------------There are different strains of E. coli. The type that occupies the human intestinal tract is one of the normal flora that help break down substances that our body cannot on its own. So the type of symbiotic relationship between E. coli and humans is mutualism.
