Question
**Question: Why do residents use chasing more than switching cleaners?**

- Residents often have access to one cleaning station in their home range.

- Residents have less ability to chase cleaners than floaters do.

- Chasing enforces cooperation better than switching because it acts as a direct punishment and it can be lethal.

- Floaters use switching and residents need a different strategy to avoid competing with floaters.

Expert Solution
Step 1

The correct answer is option A. Residents often have access to one cleaning station in their home range. 

Residents use chasing more than switching cleaners because residents often have access to one cleaning station in their home range. . This idea is clear from the cleaner fish symbiotic relationship. In the cleaner fish symbiosis, a group of residents and floaters exist. Residents only have a single cleaning station, while floaters can access multiple ones. As a result, the floater will get better service. So, the residents have to chase more.
