No a shark doesn't benefit from the relationship with a remora. When two organisms benefit from their relationship that is known as mutualisim. A remora lays on the surface of the shark catching all the leftover food from the shark. The shark doesn't benefit or get harmed by the remora and this relationship is known as commensalism. There is also parasitism which is when one organism benefits and one is harmed.

What is the type of symbiosis between sharks and remoras?
Remoras attach themselves to the shark and eat the leftover food remains that they can find. This would fall into the commensalism symbiotic relationship, because the remora is getting its food, and the shark gets no benefit. There are other studies that suggest that the remoras clean parasites from the shark's teeth and perhaps skin. If this is true then it is a mutualism relationship. Remoras eat the parasites off the underside of the shark to keep it healthy and alive. Plus the Remoras get a free meal and protection. A mutualistic symbiotic relationship. the pilot fish clean the shark's teeth and skin, and the shark protects them The remora fish attach to the shark's belly and eat the malignant parasites off it. Also remoras can stick to other organisms such as whales, other big fish and maybe also crocodiles. This would still fall into the category of commensalism.
Why are there shark teeth fossils in the mountain of NC?
Shark teeth fossils found in the mountains of North Carolina are a result of the area being underwater millions of years ago.

The shark teeth fossils are evidence of the region's geological history and ancient marine ecosystems.

What are some examples of commesalism?
Commensalism, which is a form of symbiosis in which neither party does the other much good or much harm, is rather rare and hard to declare. The usual example is that of the shark and the remora. But although the remora doesn't feed on the shark (which would make it a parasite), it does hamper the shark by increasing the drag on it. If the remora helped the shark find its food, it might be in a case of mutualism, but it doesn't, so it's a "commensal" (the word means "at the same table") almost be default.
