the relationships that organisms have with each other can directly impact their
and
population size. these relationships include mutualism,
, parasitism, predation, and
competition. each of these relationships affect
differently. some populations

due to positive relationships (the relationship helps their survival), but some decrease due to a less
beneficial relationship (the relationship hurts their survival).

Explanation:

• "Survival" makes sense as organism - organism relationships impact their ability to stay alive (survival) and population size.
• "Commensalism" is a known ecological relationship (like mutualism, parasitism etc.).
• "Populations" are what the relationships affect (e.g., a predator - prey relationship affects predator and prey populations).
• "Increase" is logical for positive relationships (helping survival would lead to population growth).

Answer:

1. survival
2. commensalism
3. populations
4. increase
