Explanation:

Symbiosis is a close and long - term biological interaction between two different biological organisms. Commensalism is a type of symbiotic relationship where one organism benefits and the other is neither helped nor harmed. Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship in which both organisms benefit. Parasitism is a symbiotic relationship where one organism (the parasite) benefits at the expense of the other (the host). Predation is an interaction where one organism (the predator) hunts and eats another organism (the prey).

commensalism: One organism benefits, the other is unaffected.
