D) parasitism.

Explanation:

A symbiotic association can be define as the ecological association of the organisms of two different species. These organisms live in close association. The members may receive benefit, harm and may not be affected.

Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship in this the members of the two species lives in close association. In this one organism receives the benefit and the other one is harmed. The organism which cause harm is called as a parasite and the one which is harmed is a host. A parasite lives over the host body but does not kill it.

Ticks are the parasitic organisms they feed the blood over the host body. They do not kill the host organism, but causes harm by sucking blood making the host organism weak. This association of ticks and host organism is an example of parasitism.

he movement of air through earth's or any planet's atmosphere is called wind, and the main cause of earth's winds is uneven heating by the sun. this uneven heating causes changes of atmospheric pressure, and winds blow from regions with high pressure to those with low pressure.
