A parasitic relationship is when one of the species is helped and one is harmed, a commensalistic relationship is when one is helped and the other is neither helped nor harmed and a mutualistic relationship is when both species are helped.
- An example of a commensalistic relationship that the Jerboa has is its relationship with Helicobacter Pylori. Helicobacter Pylori is a bacteria infection that sometimes can be found in the feces of rodents, it doesn't effect the Jerboa but it gets a perfect place to live and reproduce.
- A parasitic relationship that the Jerboa has is with ticks. The ticks feed off the Jerboa's blood so it helps them but the Jerboa is hurt by it.
- An example of a mutualistic relationship would be the Jerboa's relationship with grass, it eats the grass which gives it nutrients and then when it goes to the bathroom it fertilizes the grass with its feces.
