Vedclass · Answer

(D) . Shark and sucker fish exhibit commensalism,where the sucker fish gets food and protection without harming the shark.$B$. Lichens represent a mutualistic association between algae (phycobiont) and fungi (mycobiont).$C$. Orchids growing on trees are epiphytes,which is a type of commensalism.$D$. $Cuscuta$ is a parasitic plant that derives nutrition from the host plant. Therefore,the association between $Cuscuta$ and the roots (or stems) of higher plants is parasitism,not amensalism. Thus,option $D$ is the incorrect matching pair.
