Commensalism example 1: A clownfish lives in the anemones which give them protection from predators because the are immune to them and other fish get stinged. The clownfish does not help the anemones or hurt them. example 2: The arctic fox follows a caribou around because it waits for the caribou to dig a hole, which a caribou does to get food. Then the fox after the caribou is gone, uses the hole as a hiding place to unsupecting predators that the fox will catch and eat.

TOO CUTE!!!

Mutualism example 1: A hummingbird takes the nectar from the flower, and pollinates the other flowers with it's beak. example 2: Sea anemones and hermit crabs benifit from each other because when the crab uses the anemone for shelter and protection, the anemone recieves left over food from the crab after it leaves it shell. ( the anemone helps it reform it's shell, and it cleans out any food in it)

Parasitism example 1: A tick on a dog feeds on it, hurting the dog and giving no benifit whatsoever.

example 2: A leach feeding on a human, sucks the blood which in most cases is a very bad thing, and is only possibly useful if the blood is contaminated because it could clean the blood, which would also be dangerous as well. So mostly leeches are a bad thing, and hardly ever help the human.
