Question
What form of interaction exists between you and a UNILAG lecturer that gives you a lift while coming to school this morning? a. mutualism b. neutralism c. commensalism d. amensalism
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
This is commensalism. You benefit from the ride (+). The lecturer may experience a negligible effect, either neutral or slightly negative (using extra fuel), but the interaction is primarily one-sided benefit. In ecology, it's often viewed as one benefiting, the other unaffected (0).
Hint
One gets a benefit, the other is neither helped nor harmed.
