Commensalism is a type of interaction where one organism benefits from its relationship with another, while the other is unaffected.

In parasitism, the parasite is beneficial while the host organism is harmed by the parasite.

Mutualism is a mutually beneficial relationship between organisms.

Ammensalism is when one organism is harmed while the other is unaffected.
