<h2>Answer:</h2>
The option A is the correct option. The fungi share a mutualistic association with the trees.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Mutualism or interspecific cooperation is the way two organisms of different species exist in a relationship in which each individual fitness benefits from the activity of the other. And in this case, both plant and fungi are benefited by each other. The plant provides food and habitat for the living of fungi and fungi, in turn, decompose dead organic matter to provide simple compounds to plants.
While in commensalism only one either plant or fungi can be benefited. And it is also not a parasitic interaction.
The three scientific principles of sustainability are: (1) dependence on solar energy, (2) Biodiversity, and (3) chemical cycling.
dependence on solar energy - the energy imparted to the earth system by the sun. The sun warms the planet and provides energy that plants use to produce nutrients. The sun also powers indirect forms of solar energy such as wind and flowing water.
biodiversity -
Oil is an example for being such a low density to float on water
