What is an example of parasitism in the temperate deciduous forest biome?

In the wetter and more productive biomes, the plants compete mainly for light. In fact, the most productive biome - tropical rainforest - has a vertically structured community of plants, with canopy trees, climbers, understorey trees and shrub and ground layers.

Actually I am doing a project about temperate deciduous forest, so we need a example of parasitism, do you know some of the example?

Parasitism is a relationship between two organisms in which one organism benefits at the other organism's expense. LICE are an example of a parasite that affects many animals. TERMITES are a parasite that are destructive to many trees. Parasitism is a type of symbiosis. You might wish to research symbiosis.

Hope this helps.

I think termites actually is an example of parasitism in a deciduous forest, but I could be wrong. Biology is not my favorite science class :)

You're not wrong, Dr. C. Thanks for answering!

It makes me happy that I answered correctly. Maybe I'll be able to pass my AP biology exam after all !

Actually, plants competing for light would be an example of competition.
The funny thing is I got a project just like that. The examples I found were simple. Mosquitoes
And ticks are some examples. Male mosquitoes drink plant juices though.
