What is the purpose of the wings on a termite, and how do they contribute to the termite's life cycle and behavior?

The purpose of the wings on a termite is for reproductive purposes. The wings allow the termites to swarm and mate, leading to the establishment of new colonies. After mating, the wings are shed, and the termites start building a new colony. This behavior is crucial for the termite's life cycle as it ensures the continuation of the species.

With what species does the termite have a mutualistic relationship?

mutualism is when 2 organisms benefit from each other. the termite benefits from the Trychonympha because the Trychonympha breaks down the CELLULOSE in the wood that the termites eat, which helps the digestive system "clear out". The Trychonympha benefits from the termite because the Trychonympha gets CELLULASE from the termite, which is the thing in the Trychonympha that actually does the "breaking down" of the cellulose. Without eachother, they wouldn't be able to survive.
