Detailed explanation-1: -Wrasse fish feed on the parasites found on the black sea bass’s body. Both species benefit = (mutualism). Hermit crabs live in shells made and then abandoned by snails. This neither harms nor benefits the snails = (commensalism).
Detailed explanation-2: -In a parasitic symbiotic relationship, only one species benefits and the other species is negatively affected. : Isopods are essentially fish lice. They adhere to fish and suck off mucus membranes, blood, and tissue. The host fish is harmed and could die from the effects of multiple fish lice.
Detailed explanation-3: -Commensalism Examples This in and of itself is an example of commensalism since only the remora really benefits, but this relationship can change to mutualism when the remora feed on the parasites on the backs of these big fish.
