What are the Parasitism examples in deciduous forest??

Question

Please,, I need your help!!!

Answer 1

I was researching answers to your question and I got totally engrossed by the wonderful botanical websites with gorgeous pictures. So I almost forgot to come back to Y/A.
So half an hour later, here are examples from those websites.

1. The Sycamore Lace bug- They attach to the leaves of the sycamores to suck out the juices.
2. The Oak Treehoppers- same thing. They suck the sapout of oak tree leaves.
3.Another example of parasitism from the forest comes from a caterpillar and wasp duo,The Catalpa Hornworm, feeds on the leaves of Catalpa trees. Small braconid wasps of the species Cotesia congregata locate the larvae on the tree and sting them, injecting their eggs. These eggs hatch into larvae which feed inside the caterpillar, avoiding vital organs. Nearing maturity, the larvae bore their way out of the body wall (below), often causing droplets of hemolymph to seep out (below right). The larvae soon spin a ring of silk on the outer body of their host; they attach themselves to this silk and complete a silk cocoon around themselves (a cocoon just begun is shown below, along with a completed cocoon). Eventually, the multitude of larvae which had been living inside of the host emerge and spin their cocoons, and the host is reduced to a deflated, withered husk anchored in place as the adult wasps mature inside the cocoons until they are ready to emerge and seek out new caterpillar hosts.

Technically, the insect parasites mentioned above are better termed parasitoids, as they kill the host, while a true parasite usually does not.
4.Indian Pipes-This flowering plant, also known as Corpse Plant, Death Plant, and Birds Nest, has no chlorophyll and cannot produce its own carbohydrates. It does not directly parasitize other plants, but it taps into the mycorrhizae (fungal mutualists with plants that attach to roots) and gets carbohydrates from them, after the mycorrhizae get carbohydrates from their photosynthesizing plant partner.
5. Brown Headed Cowbird-Brown-headed Cowbird -- General Information

The Brown-headed Cowbird (Molothrus ater) is North America's most notorious brood parasite. Instead of building their own nests, incubating their own eggs and raising their own nestlings, Brown-headed Cowbirds have a different breeding strategy. Cowbird females use other bird species as hosts -- laying their eggs in the nests of other bird species and relying on these hosts to incubate and raise their chicks.

Mutualism- is a biological interaction between individuals of two different species, where both individuals derive a fitness benefit ex: 1)relationships between bees and flowers, 2)certain ants nest inside the plant's thorns. In exchange for food and shelter, ants protect trees from attack by herbivores and competition from other plants 3) land version of symbiosis is the relationship of the Egyptian Plover bird and the crocodile. In this relationship, the bird is well known for preying on parasites that feed on crocodiles. To that end, the crocodile openly invites the bird to hunt on its body, even going so far as to open its jaws to allow the bird enter the mouth safely to hunt the leeches from its gums. For the bird, this relationship not only is a ready source of food, but a safe one considering that few predator species would dare strike at the bird at such proximity to its host. commensalism-a relationship between two living organisms where one benefits and the other is not significantly harmed or helped. ex: 1)One animal attaching to another animal for transportation only. 2)Using a second organism for housing, like orchids which grow on trees, or birds that live in holes in trees. 3) A more indirect dependency, in which the second organism uses something the first created, however after the death of the first. An example is the hermit crabs that use gastropod shells to protect their bodies. parasitsm- wherein one organism, usually physically smaller of the two (the parasite) benefits and the other (the host) is harmed ex. 1)Mosquito: Females ingest blood for the protein. Male mosquitos ingest plant juices. 2)when the fungus "chicken of the woods" grows on trees. The fungus breaks down the tree and gets its nutrients that way. All that happens to the tree is bad stuff. The tree decays, gets weak, and becomes very vulnerable with wicked weather. 3)a Mistletoe growing on a mangrove. The Mistletoe penetrates the bark of the mangrove and then takes some of its food from the mangrove. The mangrove is disadvantaged by this hope that helps.
