:D from wiki :

`In ecology, commensalism is a class of relationships between two organisms where one organism benefits from the other without affecting it. This is in contrast with mutualism, in which both organisms benefit from each other, amensalism, where one is harmed while the other is unaffected, and parasitism, where one benefits while the other is harmed.`

commensalism :  A depends on B but that doesn't cause any harm to B
parasitism :  A depends on B and causes harm to B
mutualism : A and B depend on each other and benefit from it
