(A) Parasitism: In this interaction,one species benefits $(+)$ while the other is harmed $(-)$.
$(b)$ Cuscuta: It is a parasitic plant that derives nutrition from the host plant.
$(c)$ Mutualism: In this interaction,both species benefit $(+)$.
$(d)$ Lichen: It represents a mutualistic relationship between algae and fungi.
