Answer: The correct option is C.

myrmecophytes.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because ants and myrmecophytes have mutualistic relationship in which the plants provide food, and accomodation to the ants through the structural adaptations of plants like dormatia, fruiting bodies, nectaries flowers. The ants inturn ahelp the myrmecophyte in pollination, seed dispersal, to defend it against Intruders and also help it to gather nutrients.
