2. Competition

3. Predation

4. Mutualism

Parasites often have one or two intermediate hosts or vectors

1. To make a life cycle more complicated

2. To facilitate parasitization of its primary host

3. To cause advanced life cycle

4. To infect a broad range of organisms

The human liver fluke

1. A trematode parasite

2. Depends on two intermediate hosts- snail and Dog

3. Both 1 and 2

4. Simple life cycle

Which of the following is not correct with respect to parasites?
