Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

In mutualism, both species benefit, exemplified by interactions such as those seen in mutualistic relationships. Commensalism involves one species benefiting while the other is unaffected, as seen with the cattle egret and grazing cattle. Parasitism has one benefiting at the expense of the other, like the cuckoo and its host bird, while predation involves a predator and its prey, such as a lion and zebra.
