To solve this problem, we need to identify the type of interspecific interaction that is beneficial for one species and detrimental for another. Let's analyze each option:Option 1: Predation - In predation, one species (the predator) benefits by feeding on another species (the prey), which is harmed. - This interaction is represented as (+) for the predator and (ā) for the prey. - Therefore, predation fits the description of having a (+) for one species and (ā) for another.Option 2: Amensalism - In amensalism, one species is harmed while the other is unaffected. - This interaction is represented as (0) for one species and (ā) for the other. - Therefore, amensalism does not fit the description.Option 3: Commensalism - In commensalism, one species benefits while the other is unaffected. - This interaction is represented as (+) for one species and (0) for the other. - Therefore, commensalism does not fit the description.Option 4: Competition - In competition, both species are harmed as they compete for the same resources. - This interaction is represented as (ā) for both species. - Therefore, competition does not fit the description.Based on the analysis, the correct interaction that can be assigned (+) for one species and (ā) for another is:Option 1: PredationThis corresponds to the correct option, which is Option 1.
