How does the chimpanzee show an example of mutualism?

Chimpanzees exhibit mutualism through their interactions with certain fruiting trees, where they consume the fruit while simultaneously aiding in seed dispersal. By eating the fruit and later excreting the seeds in different locations, they help the plants reproduce and spread. Additionally, chimpanzees can engage in cooperative behaviors, such as grooming, which strengthens social bonds and promotes group cohesion, benefiting both the individuals involved and the overall social structure of the troop. This mutualistic behavior enhances survival and reproductive success for both the chimpanzees and the plants they interact with.
