Answer
Brief Explanations:
Predation is a biological interaction where one organism (predator) hunts and consumes another (prey). A blue whale feeding on zooplankton, a caterpillar eating tree - leaves, and a wolf eating a deer are all examples of predation. A tree obtaining nutrients from the soil is a process of absorption, not predation as there is no 'hunting' or 'consuming' of another living organism.
Answer:
B. A tree obtaining nutrients from the soil
