Bees fly around flowers gathering nectar for food. The pollen that catches on their hairy bodies spreads around the flower allowing them to reproduce.

Is that mutualism , commensalism, or Parasitism ???

Answer:

Bees and flowering plants have a mutualistic relationship where both species benefit. Flowers provide bees with nectar and pollen, which worker bees collect to feed their entire colonies. Bees provide flowers with the means to reproduce, by spreading pollen from flower to flower in a process called pollination. Without pollination, plants cannot create seeds.

Step-by-step explanation:

So its mutualism
