Plants synthesizes Food from CO2 and Water
CO2 is gotten during respiration of Animals of which plants use to manufacture food
In turn Animals will then depend on Food produced by plants
Henceforth Both Utilizes Respiratory wastes/ By products of each other
Ans is C

CHUKA MIKE

The answer is C they utilize respiratory wastes of each other
Please correct it

U are wrong bro

Abodunrin okiki

C is correct because the both depends on each other for respiratory gases which is a mutualistic behavior

anochili chinonso

Listen up everyone..
Plants and animals are involved in mutualism because animals depend on plants for food while plants also depends on animals for Co2 - which is harnessed for photosynthesis.
BEWARE of option C because the respiratory waste of plants is also Co2!!! it is only during photosynthesis that they take in Co2 and liberate oxygen.

As the definition of mutualism or symbiosis means two different organism which live together and derived benefits from each other mainly , one provide food and the other protection
Therefore plant provide animal with food as a result of photosynthetic while animal give plant carbon dioxide , by product of respiration from animal to animal to manufacture it's food
Therefore the answer is B
