this is my last question for right now because im going to be getting off in a little bit so all i need it this one from you

blues · Answer

Ok. They all want sunlight for themselves. They don't care whether the tree next to them gets sunlight. The trees as individuals don't derive any benefit from the tree beside them getting sunlight. Just looking at the option words without knowing their technical definitions, which one is most like this situation...?
