Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The relationship between remora fish and shark can be considered as mutualism. Remora attaches itself to the shark, to travel different parts of the sea by floating with the shark. It helps the remora fish to travel without burning energy. They also get to eat scraps of food dropped by the shark.
Detailed explanation-2: -The shark and remora relationship benefits both species. Remoras eat scraps of prey dropped by the shark. They also feed off of parasites on the shark’s skin and in its mouth. This makes the shark happy because the parasites would otherwise irritate the shark.
