The relationship between a host tree and a strangler fig is typically one of parasitism. The strangler fig begins life as an epiphyte, germinating in the branches of a host tree, and eventually sends roots down to the ground. As it grows, it can envelop and outcompete the host tree for sunlight and nutrients, potentially leading to the host's death. While this relationship can be detrimental to the host, the strangler fig can provide habitat and food for various wildlife, illustrating a complex ecological interaction.
This kind of relationship between host and parasite is called mutualism.
The relationship is parasitic, as the lice takes blood, but returns no benefit to the human host.
No, that is the wrong kind of symbiosis. The relationship between a flowering plant and an insect is a mutualistic one, as both of them gain something from the symbiosis. A parasitic relationship is where the parasite harms its host.
In general, there is no relationship between area and perimeter.

The kind of symbiosis, parasitism is the relationship between two or more organisms of different species that live together in a close nutritional relationship. One organism is the host which is the site or area that the other organism lives off of for their own benefit. Therefore, parasitism is a relationship in which one is benefitted and the other is taken advantaged of at expense. Therefore, an elephant is the host and the ticks are the parasites benefitted.
