Walruses often engage in a commensal symbiotic relationship with certain species of barnacles and algae that attach to their skin. While the barnacles benefit by gaining a substrate to live on, the walrus is largely unaffected and does not gain any direct benefit or suffer any harm from their presence. Additionally, walruses can also be seen as a host for microorganisms, which can play a role in their skin health. Overall, these interactions highlight the complexity of relationships in marine ecosystems.

What are chameleon's symbiotic relationships?

A symbiotic relationship is where two or more different species live together to the mutal benefit of each other. A chameleon's ability to change color depending on its surroundings is an adaptation, not a symbiotic relationship. If it were a symbiotic relationship, that would mean that the chameleon would have a symbiotic relationship with a tree, but it would also have a symbiotic relationship with the sidewalk. It just doesn't work.
