Match List-I with List-II.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
| List-I | List-II |
|---|---|
| A. Both species are harmed | I. Predation |
| B. One species is harmed and the other is benefited | II. Mutualism |
| C. Both species are benefited | III. Competition |
| D. One is benefited while the other has no effect | IV. Commensalism |
Options
- AA-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
- BA-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
- CA-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
- DA-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III
Correct answer
A. A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
Step-by-step solution
In competition, both interacting species are harmed as they compete for the same limited resources. Thus, A matches III.
In predation, one species (predator) benefits while the other (prey) is harmed. Thus, B matches I.
In mutualism, both interacting species benefit from each other. Thus, C matches II.
In commensalism, one species benefits while the other is neither harmed nor benefited (no effect). Thus, D matches IV.
The correct matching is A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV.
In predation, one species (predator) benefits while the other (prey) is harmed. Thus, B matches I.
In mutualism, both interacting species benefit from each other. Thus, C matches II.
In commensalism, one species benefits while the other is neither harmed nor benefited (no effect). Thus, D matches IV.
The correct matching is A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV.
