This interaction is best classified as a mutualistic, because the plant provides nectar for the hummingbird and the hummingbird transports pollen for the plant. b parasitism, because the hummingbird consumes the flower's nectar. c Not enough information is provided to classify this interaction. d commensalism, because the hummingbird benefits from consuming nectar and the plant is unaffected. e predation, because the hummingbird eats the plant's seeds.arrow_forward10.
