The right answer is C.
Classically positive interactions or facilitators between species are divided into two broad categories:
- those where the two partners involved benefit from each other: the mutualisms (symbolized by + / +)
- those where one of the two partners makes a profit or an advantage while the other gets nothing from it without being affected negatively: it is the commensalism symbolized by + / 0.
It may be that bacterial commensalism has an interest in its host (the animal) in the sense that it protects against parasites, or on the contrary, it favors their appearance.
Answer:
C. <em>Clostridium</em> and <em>Bacillus</em>.
Explanation:
<em>Bacillus </em>and <em>Clostridium</em> are the gram-positive bacteria and form endospores. Endospores are the resistant dormant structures formed by some gram-positive bacteria.
These bacteria form the endospores within their vegetative cells. The endospores are highly resistant to environmental stress conditions and make these bacterial genera the dangerous pathogens.
