Interrelationships of Organisms
Like you relationship with people, organisms in an ecosystem also have existing relationships. They interact and form relationships with other organisms which they need for survival. These relationships can be classified as competition, predation and symbiosis.
Competition
Competition is a relationship in which two or more organisms need the same thing in order to survive and they fight over it. They may compete for food, water, sunlight or space
Predation
Predation happens when an animal kills and eats another animal for food. An animal that eats the another animal is called Predator and the animal being hunted and eaten is called the Prey
Symbiosis
Symbiosis is an interaction that exists when two different organisms live together in close association that may benefit each member. There are three types of symbiosis: Mutualism, Commensalism and Parasitism
1.Mutualism- happens when two different organisms benefit from the presence of each other.
2.Commensalism- occurs when one organism benefits while the other is neither benefited nor harmed
3.Parasitism- takes place when an organism benefits from another while the other organism is harmed.

Parasitism is a type of symbolic relationship in the Tropical Savanna. An example of parasitism is between the tick and the African elephant. The tick is the parasite which feeds off the African elephant. The elephant does not benefit from this relationship because it is exposed to diseases and loses blood to the tick. The tick benefits because it gains blood which is its food.
Someone who depends on the goodwill of total strangers to do their homework without offering anything in return may be accused of parasitism. [And yes, if I am wrong then I beg your pardon, but it was too good to miss.] Parasitism is the action of a parasite. A parasite gains from another organism, while not benefiting that organism.
No, the relationship between moth and sloth is not parasitism. The moth benefits from the nutrients on the sloth's fur, while the sloth may benefit from the moth's presence by gaining protection from predators. This relationship is more of a mutualistic symbiosis.
No. Lions hunting giraffes is predation, not parasitism. Parasitism requires one animal or creature using another animal or creature for its benefit while the used creature suffers. A predator kills a different animal to consume it.
There are many herbavores who live in the coniferous forest, one examples is a deer, who also live in evergreen forests, another examples is a rabbit, and another is a squirrel.
A coniferous forest is a fern forest
Some examples of competition in the coniferous forest include competition for sunlight among tall trees, competition for nutrients in the soil among plant roots, and competition for food and territory among animals like squirrels and birds. These competitive interactions help to regulate population sizes and maintain ecosystem balance in the coniferous forest.
A coniferous forest is one with many evergreen trees. You usually find a coniferous forest at higher altitudes.
Wolves and polar bears are both examples of top carnivores in the coniferous forest and/or tundra ecosystems.

A lot of places in the United States are part of the Coniferous Forest. Part of the Coniferous Forest are the Decidous. So it would be people who live on the EAST side of the U.S.A
