The correct answer is - b) parasitism.
The kudzu is a plant that has adapted to get stuck to the other plants, usually trees and bigger shrubs, and get nutrients and water through them. In this way, the kudzu shows elements of parasitism, as it is using a host plant in order to satisfy its needs.
The native plants and shrubs will have a big problem with an introduction of the kudzu in their environment. They will not have a defense mechanism, and the kudzu will spread out very quickly and suck the nutrients and water out of them, hindering their growth and even killing them over the coarse of longer period of time.
This would be a prime example of parasitic relationship between the kudzu and the native plants.

A claim is an unverified statement or theory which is made about something which may or may not be true.
<h3>Verification of a claim</h3>
For a claim to be validated, i.e, proven to be true (in science), then there needs to be tests and experiments which needs to be carried out to show that the claim is valid.
With this in mind, if for example if there's a claim that jewelweed helps to treat symptoms caused by poison ivy, then there needs to be a controlled experiment to see if this is true or not.
If after a series of experiments and it can be established without any iota of doubt, then the claim is valid and the scientific process will move to the next stage.
