Summary Introduction
To indicate:
The type of symbiotic relationship in the given figure.
Introduction:
When more than one type of microbeshares a habitat, associations are formed between these microbes. These associations can be symbiotic, in which all the microbes live closely together, sharing nutrients that are required by one or more members. Symbiotic relationships can be of three types: mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism.

- Below are statements about symbiosis. Choose the correct responses. ( Only pick one answer per [ ] ) ["Commensalism", "Mutualism", "Parasitism"] is a term that describes when two organisms both benefit from a relationship. One example of this you will view is lab is ["Viruses Infecting Bacteria", "Yeast Fermenting sugar", "Bacteria such as Rhizobium living in plant structures called root nodules"] . ["Commensalism", "Mutualism", "Parasitism"] is a term that describes when one organism benefits, while the second organism is not harmed, and does not benefit.
