Question

Which of the following could be involved in a mutualism?
A) A host
B) A parasite
C) Intraspecific individuals
D) A symbiont

Accepted Answer

Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship in which both species benefit. A host is an organism that provides a home for another organism, while a parasite is an organism that lives on or in another organism and benefits at the expense of the host. Intraspecific individuals are members of the same species, and symbionts are organisms that live in close association with each other.
