Answer:

False

Explanation:

The living organisms are always different from non - living organisms. The living organisms have some characters which separate them from the non-livings. These characteristics are growth, reproduction, nutrition, excretion, variations, etc. The nonliving organisms do not have these characters. Viruses are the only organisms that have both living and non- living characters. They reproduce, have genetic materials. But viruses are having a protein coat and not cell. Therefore, it is an acellular organism. It always needs a host to reproduce and in the absence of a host, they are non living microbes. Therefore, they are neither living nor non living.

A) parasitism

B) mutualism

C) inhibition

D) facilitation

E) commensalism

Answer:

D) facilitation

Explanation:

In ecology, facilitation is used to describe community interaction between two species in which at least one of the species is benefited. One species "facilitates" survival of another species and hence the term facilitation. They can provide facilitation by providing them refuge from predation, competition, physical stress etc.

Facilitation is broadly of two types, mutualism and commensalism. In mutualism, both the interacting organisms are benefited. In commensalism, one organism is benefited and another one is neither benefited nor harmed.
