Correct answer: B). Commensalism

Commensalism is a relationship among the individuals of two species in which the one species obtain food or shelter and the other benefits from the other species without harming the other organism.

In this relationship, the one species get benefits and those of other neither get benefit nor harmed.

Example: Fleas, biting lice etc.
