The correct answer is glucose.
Glucose is the major carbohydrate that can be absorbed and used by humans for energy. In animals, glucose is stored as glycogen in the liver and the muscle tissue in contrast to plants wherein they store glucose as amylose and amylopectin (also known as starch). In digestion of starch, it will start with the saliva where the enzyme salivary amylase will break it down to smaller molecules of starch and limit dextrins. These will be further broken down in the intestines using the pancreatic amylase forming di and trisaccharides. These di and trisaccharides will be metabolized by brush border enzyme to eventually produce glucose (and other monosaccharides that can be absorbed such as fructose and galactose).
The answer is <span>c. mutualism.
</span>
<span>Mutualism is a relationship between two
different species in which both species have benefits. In this example, ants benefit because they feed on aphids' wastes while aphids benefit because ants provide them protection.

<span>Commensalism is a relationship between two
species in which only one of them has benefit, and the other one is not
affected. Parasitism is a relationship between two species in which only
one of them has benefit, and the other one is harmed.</span><span>
