Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship, where the parasite (symbiont) obtains nutrients from its host.
1) Contrast endoparasitism and ectoparasitism.
2) Describe one invertebrate endoparasite you find interesting and identify its definitive host (and any intermediate hosts).
3) Describe one invertebrate ectoparasite you find interesting and identify its definitive host (and any intermediate hosts).
What is a lichen? Why is this considered an example of a parasite-host relationship? Why might you also consider it a mutualistic interaction?
Why would a parasite develop a life cycle involving an intermediate hosts? What is this giving the parasite? Provide example(s)
