| responsible for the Irish Potato Famine | water mold protist |
| host | organism a parasite lives off of and harms |
| parasitism | type of symbiosis where one organism is helped and one is harmed |
| conjugation | sexual reproduction where genetic material is shared before the bacteria or protist duplicates itself |
