III. Read the text carefully and choose the best answer for each question:
Mutualism is a type of symbiosis that occurs when two unlike organism live together in a state that is
mutually beneficial. It can exist between two animals, between two plants, or between a plant and an
animal. Mutualism is unlike the symbiotic state of commensalism in that commensalism is a one-sided
state in which a host gives a guest takes, while in mutualism both partners live on a give-and-take basis.
In the African wilds, the zebra and the ostrich enjoy a symbiotic relationship that enhances the ability of
each of these large land animals to survive. Both serve as prey for the lion and neither has the capability
alone to withstand an attack from this fierce hunter. However, when the zebra and the ostrich collaborate
in their defense by alerting each other to possible danger from an approaching predator, the lion is rarely
able to capture more than the oldest or feeblest of the herd.

The complementary physical strengths and weaknesses of the ostrich and the zebra allow them to work in
coordination to avoid succumbing to the lion. The ostrich possesses great speed and keen eyesight, which
enable it to spot large predatory animals long before they are able to position themselves to attack. The
zebra, with a running speed equal to that of the ostrich, has excellent hearing and a good sense of smell
but lacks the sharp eyesight of the ostrich. When ostriches and zebras intermix for grazing, each animal
benefits from the ability of the other to detect approaching danger. If either animal senses danger, both
animals are alerted and take off. With the running speed that both of these animals possess, they are able
to outrun any predator except the cheetah.
