thomaster (thomaster):

Is the fish competing with the shark?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol no now that I think of it, im gona go with C if thats correct

thomaster (thomaster):

Yep, commensalism is the relationship in which one of the 2 organisms benefit and the other one is neither benefited nor harmed. The shark didn't eat the leftovers, and the other fish benefits from that. So it's an example of commensalism.
