Answer 8

Deer chew grass. Mountain lions predate deer. Fleas suck mammalian blood, and with this illustration map, that mammal is the mountain lion. Fleas house themselves onto an epidermal surfaces where nutritious blood supply is within reach. This usually spells trouble for the host (the animal affected) and the victim experience various negative effects. So as @Nerdsarecool stated, B parasitism is your best answer although D predation could also be argued as the second best.
