EcosystemsEcosystemsClown fish are bright and colorful. They live in and amongst the tentacles of the sea anemone, which look like beautiful aquatic flowers, but bear poisonous stinging cells called nematocysts. A slime layer covering the clown fish makes it immune to the stinging cells, and the stinging tentacles of the sea anemone deter potential predators of the clown fish. The clown fish, in turn, protect the sea anemone from other fish that would feed on the anemone. What type of relationship do clown fish and sea anemone have with each other?

A. MutualismB. CommensalismC. ParasitismD. Environmentalism
