Answer:
5. false
6. true
Explanation:
5. Organisms that derive nutrition from the body of other living organisms (host) are parasites. Tapeworm is an example of a parasite.
6. While in the infection thread, rhizobia are parasites; they may switch to mutualistic symbionts if a nitrogen-fixing response results. Failure to fix nitrogen results in a pathogenic response because the plant is generally debilitated by the presence of rhizobia.
