Answer: if they help you break down food

Step-by-step explanation:

Mutualism is a biological relationship between TWO or more organisms of different species (inter-specie) in which one or more benefits.

A good example is bacteria in the human intestine that helps to break down cellulose contained in food, thus benefitting humans.
