I'm curious about symbiosis, specifically whether it is considered positive or negative. I'd like to understand the general nature of this biological relationship.

Commensalism, on the other hand, involves one species benefiting while the other is neither harmed nor benefited.

Parasitism is a negative association where one species, the parasite, benefits at the expense of the other, the host.
