Solution

The correct option is B Both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
Commensalism is the interaction in which one species benefits and the other is neither harmed nor benefited.

The cattle egret and grazing cattle is an example of commensalism. The egrets forage close to the grazing cattle. As the cattle move, they stir up and flush out insects from the vegetation that otherwise might be difficult for the egrets to find and catch.
