Hints & Solutions
(c) Mycorrhizae is a symbiotic association between fungi and roots of higher plants. The population interaction is a very important one as it ensures that there is stability in the ecosystem. The two main populations interacting in predation are the predators and the prey. The species diversity in a community is also maintained by the predators. They reduce the intensity of the competition between prey species.
