What does Mutualism mean? (Give definition, example & explanation)

Biology
1 answer:
koban [17]4 years ago
3 0
A mutualistic relationship is when two organisms of different species "work together," each benefiting from the relationship. One example of a mutualistic relationship is that of the oxpecker (a kind of bird) and the rhinoceros or zebra. Oxpeckers land on rhinos or zebras and eat ticks and other parasites that live on their skin. The oxpeckers get food and the beasts get pest control. Also, when there is danger, the oxpeckers fly upward and scream a warning, which helps the symbiont (a name for the other partner in a relationship).

Natural Selection is about how an organism must have useful traits to survive to reproductive stage and  successfully reproduce, so it would definitely be D.
