3. Which of the following statements about parasitism is true?
The presence of a parasite does not affect the host.
Parasitism is similar to predation
Parasitism is a cooperative relationship between two species.
Parasites always kill their hosts.
The answer would be "Parasitism is similar to predation." It would not be the the first option, as parasitism only benefits one organism. Nor would it be the other two, as it is NOT a cooperative relationship or a certain-death scenario.
