Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

In competition, both interacting species are harmed as they compete for the same limited resources. Thus, A matches III.

In predation, one species (predator) benefits while the other (prey) is harmed. Thus, B matches I.

In mutualism, both interacting species benefit from each other. Thus, C matches II.

In commensalism, one species benefits while the other is neither harmed nor benefited (no effect). Thus, D matches IV.

The correct matching is A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV.
