What is the role of salmon with respect to shrimp in this food chain?

A. Predator
B. Parasite
C. Host
D. Prey

Salmon are predators to shrimp.

This makes sense because a predator is an animal that hunts another animal to survive. Since salmon feed on shrimp, they must be a predator.

Additionally, we can eliminate the other possibilities by process of elimination:

-B is incorrect as a parasite is an organism that lives inside of another organism. Since salmon do not live inside of shrimp, this doesn't make sense.

-C is incorrect because a host is an organism that a parasite lives inside of. Since shrimp do not live inside of salmon, this also can be removed.

-D is incorrect because prey is an animal that is eaten by another animal. Since shrimp to not eat salmon, this can also be eliminated.

Therefore, A is our answer.

Hope this helps! :)
