Answer:

D) Nitrogen-fixing bacteria in root nodules of legumes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mutualism is a concept in Biology that describes the ecological interaction between more than one species in which all species involved benefit from this interaction. Root nodules are generally seen on roots of legumes and they have symbiotic relation with nitrogen-fixing bacteria, which is one form of mutualism.
