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.
