Answer:

A.  The fungi share a mutualistic association with the trees.

Explanation:

Mutualistic relationship is a type of ecological interaction in which two species live in close association to benefit each other. In this example since both mycorrhizae and fungi are being benefited out of each other it is mutualistic relationship. The fungi gets energy from the tree for its survival and in return breaks down dead organic matter for the tree so as to make nutrients available for the tree.
