  1. Commensalism is the interaction in which one species benefits and the other is neither harmed nor benefited. This is the kind of interaction when one species gains while the other neither loses nor gains. While neither the mango tree nor the whale appear to gain anything, an orchid growing as an epiphyte on a mango branch and barnacles growing on a whale's back do. The classic illustration of commensalism is a cow egret and grazing cattle in close proximity, a scene you are most likely to see if you live in agricultural rural settings.

  2. Mutualism is interaction confers benefits on both the interacting species.
