I don't know what mutual dependency means. Did I answer the last part correctly? Your help is appreciated. Thank You in advance.

Answer 1

A mutual dependency describes a relationship between two people or groups of people. They each depend upon each other. One example would be the mutual dependency between the Native peoples and the French fur traders. They needed each other to profit from this trade.
