पर्याय

• Predation

• Parasitism

• Altruism

• Mutualism

Answer 1

Predation is an interspecific interaction where one organism (the predator) consumes another organism (the prey) of a different species. This is fundamentally different from cannibalism, which occurs within the same species, and represents a classic consumer-resource relationship in ecosystems.
