The correct answer is A) microbes.
Explanation: The phrase “Some make poisons. Others cooperate” suggests a reference to microorganisms. Some microbes produce toxins (poisons) as part of their survival strategies, while others can have symbiotic relationships where they cooperate with other organisms. This duality is characteristic of microbial behavior, distinguishing them from the other options listed.
