Question

Give one word for the given expression. Plants that draw sustenance from one another.

• A. parasitic
• B. symbiotic
• C. co-biotic
• D. subsistant

Hint:

A "symbiotic" relationship is one where two organisms live together and both benefit from the relationship, such as in plants that rely on each other for sustenance.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The term "symbiotic" refers to a relationship between two organisms where they benefit from each other, often seen in plants that draw sustenance or resources from one another. Here is the explanation for each option: - Parasitic: Refers to a relationship where one organism benefits at the expense of the other, not the same as "symbiotic."
- Symbiotic: Refers to a mutually beneficial relationship, which is what plants that draw sustenance from one another do.
- Co-biotic: Not a standard term, incorrect in this context.
- Subsistant: Refers to something that sustains or supports life, not specific to relationships between plants. Therefore, the correct answer is "symbiotic".
