Detailed explanation-1: -A parasitic relationship is a relationship between two different organisms in which one organism gains at the expense of others without killing it. An example of a parasitism relationship is that of ticks, fleas, lice or leeches on a host such as a human or a dog.
Detailed explanation-2: -The relationship between the bacteria and the ticks is commensalism, and the relationship between the ticks and the humans is parasitism.
Detailed explanation-3: -Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship in which one species (the parasite) benefits while the other species (the host) is harmed.
Detailed explanation-4: -Out of these, fleas and dogs share a parasitic kind of symbiosis. In this kind of relationship, one organism (in this case, fleas) lives on another (dogs) organism also called host organism, as a parasite. They keep extracting nutrients from the host body that benefits them but weakens the host body.
