Answer:
Mutualism
Explanation:
Organisms in an ecosystem interact with one another from time to time. The close interaction between two organisms is referred to as SYMBIOSIS. Symbiosis is of different types depending on the how it affects the involved organisms. The example in this question depicts MUTUALISM.
Mutualism is the type of symbiotic relationship between two organisms in which both organisms benefit from the relationship. This is the case of the LICHEN, which involves the Algae and Fungi. The algae benefits by making use of the water and minerals supplied by the fungi while the fungi benefits by using the food the algae produces via photosynthesis.
From studies and research, I believe the proper question would be:
"How do the animals satisfy their need for water?" or "How long do the animals live?"
Explanation 1:
When studying the desert, asking "Can you buy the animals in pet stores?" is not going to help you find information about the desert because it is not a question to get information about the desert, only information if you just buy it at your local pet shop.
Explanation 2:
Asking "How many offspring do the animals have?" does help us learn about animals, but we are trying to find information on the structure of the desert in which the animals live in. We are not looking for how many children the animals will have because it doesn't fully relate to the question we would be asking.
Side Note: Offsprings mean children.
