Accepted Answer

A is false but R is true.. Mycorrhiza is a symbiotic, generally mutualistic association between a fungus and the roots of a vascular plant. Mycorrhizal symbiosis are mutualistic interactions between the root systems of around 80% of land plants and the mycelium of various fungi. Mycorrhizal fungi participate actively to plant development by improvement of access to nutrients, particularly when resources become scarce.
