Which of the following correctly labels the transformation of species interaction that is described in the scenario?
In the beginning, an organism enjoyed the leaves on a large tree as a food source. The tree was not able to produce leaves as quickly as it got consumed. Over time, the
organism decided to turn the tree into a home, whose waste helped bring nutrients to the tree's roots, while it found a new food source. This interaction changed from
herbivory to mutualism.

herbivory to commensalism.
In the beginning, an organism was able to find a home on another organism. It would consume foreign bacteria that grew specifically on the main organism's face. Because
of this, the main organism no longer developed skin rashes. Over time, this organism had to suck the blood from the main organism due to the lack of bacteria. This
interaction went from predation to parasitism.
