Answer:

C. Parasitism

Step-by-step explanation:

Mutualism means both organisms benefit. An example of this is a bee and flower.

Commensalism means one organism benefits and the other is unaffected. An example of this is a whale and barnacles.

Parasitism means one organism benefits, and the other is harmed. An example of this other than mosquito and human is a dog and fleas.

Hope this helps!!
