Answer:

C) commensalism

Explanation:

Commensalism is an interaction in which one organism benefits without causing any harm to the other. The other organism derives no benefit from the relationship.

The scenario above in which the dwarf mistletoe obtains nutrients from the vascular tissues of trees is a perfect example of such a relationship.

Parasitism is similar to this but the other organism is harmed in the process.

Natali [406]
The correct sequence is; Glycolysis-pyruvate-acetyl CoA-krebs cycle-electron transport chain. 
Glycolysis is a sequence of reactions for the breakdown of glucose to two molecules of pyruvic acid under aerobic conditions, Krebs cycle is a series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to release stored energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into carbon dioxide and chemical energy in the energy carriers, while electron transport chain involves a series of complexes that transfer electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors via redox reactions and couples this transfer with the transfer of protons across a membrane.
