Animalike protists, such as certain types of zooplankton, benefit marine ecosystems by serving as a crucial food source for larger animals, including fish and whales. For example, these protists consume bacteria and organic matter, helping to recycle nutrients in the water. In turn, they provide energy and sustenance for higher trophic levels, thus supporting the overall health of aquatic food webs. This symbiotic relationship showcases the interconnectedness of life in ecosystems.
When one organism benefits and the other organism is unaffected it is called commensalism.
Commensalism is a type of relationship between two organisms where one organism benefits, while the other is neither helped nor harmed. This interaction is generally one-sided, with one organism using the other for its own advantage.
This is called parasitism.
Theoretically, when an organism has adapted perfectly to a completely static situation. Only such a situation doesn't exist in actuality.

Commensalism benefits one organism and the other organism is neither benefited nor harmed.
Commensalism benefits one organism and the other organism is neither benefited nor harmed.
A natural relationship in which one organism lives in or on another organism and benefits from the relationship while the other organism may be harmed is a parasitic relationship.
Commensalism benefits one organism and the other organism is neither benefited nor harmed.
Termites for one.
Mutualism-Both organisms benefitCommensalism-One organism benefits, and the other is not affected in any manner.Parasitism-One organism benefits, and the other is harmed.
A symbiotic relationship called Parasitism.
