A shell provides protection and shelter for a hermit crab, which uses it as its home. The hermit crab carries the shell on its back and can move to a larger one as it grows. This symbiotic relationship benefits both the hermit crab and the shell.

Hermit crabs are known to use empty snail shells as protection for their soft abdomens. They often inhabit shells left behind by snails, creating a symbiotic relationship where the hermit crab benefits from the snail shell and the snail is not negatively impacted.
well mostly the difference between crabs and hermit crabs is that one is not born with a shell and one is. Also hermit crabs tend to be smaller
Yes, the snail benefits from the hermit crab's actions in a mutualistic relationship. When a hermit crab uses a shell, it can create a more stable environment and protection for the snail if it moves into the abandoned shell. Additionally, the hermit crab's movement can help the snail access new food sources and habitats. Overall, the relationship can enhance the survival and well-being of both species.
