Asked by Fairypenguingirl

I am writing my answer and my teacher wants me to give an example of parasitism and write a sentence explaining my answer. Is this a good answer also should I keep the semicolon or change it.

Sentence: Wolves and deer; The deer are hunted and killed by the wolves in order for the wolves to live.
Answered by Ms. Sue
Wolves and deer are not examples of parasitism. They are examples of a predator-prey relationship.

Is this better?
Tick and dog; The tick bites the dog for some of the dogs blood to survive off of, when the tick does this the dog not only looses blood but also has a chance of getting Lyme disease.
Answered by Ms. Sue
You need a colon after Tick and dog.

Dog's needs the apostrophe.

Eliminate these words: to survive off of.

Break your sentence into two complete sentences.

Use a comma before but.
