Population Interactions

The video explores interspecific interactions among species, including predation, competition, parasitism, commensalism, mutualism, and amensalism. Each interaction type is explained with examples, highlighting their ecological roles and effects on species involved. Predation involves one species preying on another, while competition occurs when species vie for the same resources. Parasitism benefits the parasite at the host's expense. Commensalism benefits one species without affecting the other, and mutualism benefits both. Amensalism harms one species without affecting the other.
