several of descriptions with blanks

descriptions with blanksthe answers to the blanks
(Bacteria>symbiosis) the relationship between the human body and the normal flora is an example of #1. In some cases the #2 is #3 to both the human body and the micro-organisms.this relationship is called #4. #1-symbiosis #2-symbiosis #3-beneficial #4-muturalism
