Question

a relationship between two organisms in which both organisms benefit from the relationship is known as what type of a relationship? parasitism mutualism

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze the definitions of the two options:

• Parasitism: A relationship where one organism (parasite) benefits at the expense of the other (host), so this does not match the description of both organisms benefiting.
• Mutualism: By definition, it is a symbiotic relationship in which both organisms involved derive a benefit. This matches the description given in the question.

Answer:

B. Mutualism
