Explain how symbiotic relationships are similar and different from predator-prey relationships?

Well...symbiotic relationships have a meaning wher both individuals are in the relationship for a reason. There is a bond, whether it be physical or emotional, that the two individuals share. A symbiotic relationship is usually healthy. Now a predator-prey relationship is a very difficult and awkward situation. Either the male and or female is bullied and raped. Sometimes even sexually assaulted. Usually one person is in the relationship for love...yet the other is in it for physical stimulation...sex. These are both very different relationships and vary by views and opinions. The past sentances were my entire opinion. Hope it Helped, Wise one. ;)
