The moth will live in the fur of the sloth until it is time to lay it's eggs. Once a week the sloth goes to the bottom of the tree to lay it's waste. The moth then flies onto the waste and lays it's eggs. After all that the moth hitches a ride on the moth to live the rest of its life.
No, the relationship between moth and sloth is not parasitism. The moth benefits from the nutrients on the sloth's fur, while the sloth may benefit from the moth's presence by gaining protection from predators. This relationship is more of a mutualistic symbiosis.

the sloth cant be harm by the algae
A commensal relationship requires that one organism benefits from the relationship without affecting the other organism. So, in order for that to be true, the algae would have to be neutral to the sloth... not harming it or aiding it (those relationships would be defined differently). It would have to not affect it at all.
If you are talking about a Three Toed Sloth and not a Sloth Bear then it is about 58cm or 23" .

the sloth cant be harm by the algae
There are three main types of symbiotic relationships: mutualism, where both species benefit; commensalism, where one species benefits and the other is unaffected; and parasitism, where one species benefits at the expense of the other.
yucca moth
The Yucca plant gives the moth a place to lay her eggs, while the moth helps the plant reproduce. The moth brings pollen from other Yucca plants to the female portion of the plant. It then deposits the pollen into the plant. The moth also lays its eggs in the plant. Once the eggs hatch the lavae feed on the Yucca plants seeds that were formed by the pollen that the moth brought. Since both animals are benefiting from this relationship, it is called a Mutualistic association.
