Introduction
Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship where one organism, a parasite, benefits at the expense of another, a host.
In evolutionary biology, parasitism is a relationship between species, where one organism, the parasite, lives on or in another organism, the host, causing it some harm, and is adapted structurally to this way of life.

Conclusion
What is parasitism?
what are the different types of parasites?
Parasitism is a relationship wherein the parasite lives off or in the host. After this activity I hope you will be aware of the relationship and the effects of parasites especially the dangerous effects. I hope one will be aware of the foods he/she eats, hygiene and the danger of having parasitic worms and how we acquire them.
