Answer:

Zooxanthellae and coral have a mutualistic, symbiotic relationship. Coral obtains oxygen and organic products from the algae that live within them. These algae also help the coral remove waste. The zooxanthellae obtains needed carbon dioxide and needed nutrients from the coral. The coral also provides the zooxanthellae with a protected habitat. Because both organisms derive a benefit from their relationship, it is considered mutualistic.
