A P. Bursaria cell that has lost its zoochlorellae is aposymbiotic. If aposymbiotic cells have population growth rates the same as those of healthy, zoochlorella-containing P. bursaria in well-lit environments with plenty of prey items, then such an observation eould be consistent with which type of relationship?A) toxicB) mutualisticC) commensalisticD) predator-preyE) paras

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option B, Mutualistic relationship

Explanation:

The relationship between two organism where each organism gets benefitted from the association is known as mutualistic relationship  

Zoochlorellae benefits their host by providing them essential nutrients and oxygen by using the waste containing nitrogen, phosphorus and carbon dioxide.  

Paramecium bursaria benefits the algae  Zoochlorellae  by providing them  protection and also enable them to move.  

They exhibit mutualistic endosymbiotic relationship

Hence, option B is correct

Answer: Commensalitic

Explanation:

The commensalism can be defined as one of the symbiotic relationships. In this type of relationship both of the organism are either benefited by each other or they do not affect each other in any way.

The two cells of P. bursaria got separated from each and they are living in such a way that the two cells grow at same rates.

In this case the organism are said to be in commensalism in which they live independently and they do not depend on each other for their survival.
