Answer:

Symbiosis

Step-by-step explanation:

Symbiosis is an association between two living organisms in which both the host and the symbiont benefit, i.e. the association is mutually beneficial. Example include the biflagellate bacteria that live in the rumen of ruminant. These produce the enzyme cellulase which digests cellulose. Most of the products of this digestion are absorbed by the host.
