Answer:

Predator-Prey Relationship

Explanation:

If the extinction of one of the species leads to an increase in the population of the other species, then the relationship must be a predator-prey relationship, because the now-extinct species was keeping the now-increasing population of the other species in check.

Answer:

Commensalism

Explanation:

Commensalism - relationship in which one organism benefits while the other is neither helped nor harmed.

Because there were two species we can see that there was not a harmful (parasitism) relationship, nor Mutualism because when one species died the other remained safe.
