CSE 2022: Plan/ Strategy/ Daily Routine
This is an everything thread for all stuff 2022. You can post your daily goals, end-of-the-day updates, weekly targets or any weird thing you use to measure your progress. You can put into words & post the soul-sucking sadness that is threatening to devour you & your productivity. You can write what made your day & let others experience the happiness too, at least vicariously. This is a thread to pick each other up. This is a thread to keep each other accountable. This is a no-judgement zone.

“This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don't get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can't do anything, don't get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it's ready to come undone. You have to realize it's going to be a long process and that you'll work on things slowly, one at a time.”
— Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

PYQ 2021:
Which of the following have species that can establish symbiotic relationship with other organisms? 1. Cnidarians 2. Fungi 3. Protozoa
Select the correct answer using the code given below. (a) 1 and 2 only (b) 2 and 3 only (c) 1 and 3 only (d) 1, 2 and 3
All coachings, googling gave answer (d)-1,2,3. But, NCERT Class 11 Biology (Chap-2, Pg-21) book says as follows:
"All protozoans are heterotrophs and live as predators or parasites."
Nothing could be as clear as this statement, which means they cannot be symbiotic. UPSC almost always goes by traditional, official, authoritative books like NCERT rather than googling/wiki/research papers. So, I think answer should be (A)-1 and 2 only. What do you guys think?

Symbiosis is not just mutualism where both organisms benefit (like in lichens). It includes commensalism, amensalism, parasitism etc as well. Basically, any type of a close + long-term biological interaction= symbiotic relationship.
Jammu,nebulaReference: PYQ 2021-"Protozoa forms symbiotic relationship".
Biology NCERT class 11, chap-2, pg-21 says "All protozoans are predators or parasites"
I always thought Symbiotic relationship means "mutualistic" . Does anyone know if in any NCERT they have clearly told that symbiotic relationship means parasitism, commensalism, amensalism also (as wiki says). It is available on google but UPSC doesn't stick to google if the statement is available in NCERT. Also, wiki para says it is a century old debate if symbiosis means only mutualism or not. If it that old a debate, then UPSC will certainly stick to NCERT. Hence, if anyone can give me NCERT reference of symbiotic being parasitism also I would be greatly obliged. Otherwise we will have to stick to NCERT, no matter how many research papers have come on google.
