Commensalism is a type of symbiotic relationship between two organisms in which one organism benefits (the commensal) while the other is unaffected. The organism that benefits may gain protection, transportation, or access to resources, while the other organism neither benefits nor is harmed.
commensalism is a class of relationship between two organisms where one organism benefits but the other is neutral (there is no harm or benefit).
Commensalism benefits one organism and the other organism is neither benefited nor harmed.
Parasitism is what happens when one organism benefits and the other is harmed. For example, think of fleas on a dog. The fleas are parasites because they are benefiting from living on the dog, but the dog is being harmed by the fleas.
