Solution
The correct option is D Mutualism
Mycorrhizae are mutualistic associations between fungi and the roots of higher plants. The fungi help the plant in the absorption of essential nutrients from the soil and the plant in turn provides the fungi with energy-yielding carbohydrates.
Hence, option d is correct.
The phenomenon in which the fungi are restricted to either grow or germinate in soils is called fungistasis.
Amensalism is a type of interaction between two different species in which one species is harmed and the other is unaffected (neither harmed nor benefitted).
Inhibitory or destructive effect of microorganisms on one another is called antibiosis.
