The relationship between  the  hermit crabs and the snails  is  A.commensalism

Why? Commensalism refers to a relationship where one organism benefits  from the other without  affecting it. In this case, the hermit crab benefits from the  snails, via the latter's discarded shells. The crab's use of the  snails' shells has no impact on the  snails.

Risk of using bio pharmaceuticals
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

The potential risks associated with plant-based pharmaceuticals include: pollen transfer to related species, contamination of non-transgenic crops intended for the consumption by humans, allergic reactions to the drugs produced from the genetically engineered plant, and persistence of genetically engineered material to persist in the environment and accumulate in non-target organisms. Risk assessment of plant-made pharmaceuticals should be reviewed on a case-by-case basis because the plants used to produce proteins each have different risks associated with them.

How do these materials provide the plant with energy
Papessa [141]
Photosynthesis is a natural process by which trees and plants use energy from the sun and carbon dioxide from the air to make the food they need to live and grow. At the same time, the leaves or needles absorb carbon dioxide from the air. These raw materials flow to plant cells containing chlorophyll.
