parasitism (one organism benefits, the other is harmed) - tapeworm; hookworm; clam larvae (glochidea) on the gills of fish; lice; parasitic ameba; leeches; ticks.
mutualism (both organisms benefit) - tick birds on a rhinocerus; intestinal protozoans of termites; crocodile birds (can't remember the real name but they pick food from the teeth of crocodiles); cleaner shrimp on moray eels.
commensalism (one organism benefits, the other is not harmed or benefitted) - remoras on a shark; clownfish in a sea anemone; little fish that live inside a sea cucumber; tiny crabs that live in the mantle chamber of an oyster.
