The correct answer is indeed (d) 1, 2, and 3.
All three of the mentioned groups - Cnidarians, Fungi, and Protozoa - can establish symbiotic relationships with other organisms:
1. Cnidarians: Cnidarians include creatures like corals and sea anemones. They can form mutualistic symbiotic relationships with certain types of algae (e.g., zooxanthellae). The algae live inside the tissues of the cnidarians and provide them with nutrients through photosynthesis, while the cnidarians offer protection and a stable environment for the algae.
2. Fungi: Fungi are known for forming various types of symbiotic relationships. One of the most well-known examples is mycorrhizal associations, where fungi form symbiotic relationships with plant roots. The fungi help the plants absorb nutrients from the soil, and in return, they receive carbohydrates produced by the plants.
3. Protozoa: Protozoa are a diverse group of single-celled organisms. Some protozoa can establish symbiotic relationships with other organisms. For example, certain protozoa can live symbiotically in the guts of termites and help digest cellulose, a complex carbohydrate found in plant material.
So, all three groups have species that can establish symbiotic relationships with other organisms, making option (d) the correct answer.

Dawki Or Umngot River Meghalaya
Читать полностью…
Popularly known as Dawki river, the Umngot river in Meghalaya is undisputedly the cleanest river in Asia with its crystal clear water. It originates from the Eastern Shillong Peak, which is located 1,800 m above sea level.
The river is in the village of Mawlynnong ("God's Own Garden") in Meghalaya, close to India’s border with Bangladesh, which is touted as Asia’s Cleanest Village.
Alongside cleanliness, the village has also achieved a rare feat — a 100% literacy rate.
It acts as a natural divide between Jaintia and Khasi hills, before finally flowing into Bangladesh. @cseupscnotes
