@Kitten_is_back well
Mutualism is when both species benefit and parasitism is when one species benefits and the other doesn't, both of these don't apply however. So when you think about Commensalism is your only option since the definition is: between two organisms in which one benefits and the other derives neither benefit nor harm.
