• Commensalism is an association between two organisms in which one organism (commensal) benefits while the other animal t(host) dos not benefit. Here the moss gains support and shelter from a tree that gains nothing
• Mutualism is an association between two organisms in which both parties benefit for example in lichen, the fungi absorbs water from the atmosphere for the algae to photosynthesize for both organisms.
• In parasitism, one organism(parasite) lives on or in another (host) from which it derives food or nutrients and causing harm.
• Predation, an organism(predator) kills and feeds on the anther (host).
