Question

1. every species of fig has its own species of fig wasp to pollinate its flowers. without the fig wasp, there would be no fig seeds. without the fig, the wasp could lay no egg. what is the relationship between these two organisms? a. predator/prey b. commensalism c. mutualism d. parasitism

Explanation:

Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship where both organisms benefit. In this case, the fig wasp gets a place to lay eggs (benefit) and the fig gets pollinated (benefit), so it's mutualism. Predator - prey is one organism eating another. Commensalism is one benefits and the other is unaffected. Parasitism is one benefits and the other is harmed.

Answer:

C. Mutualism
