Commensalism is when one organism is living with, on, or in another organism without injury to either one of them. The picture above is a picture of the bottom of an oak tree that is behind my house with moss on it. This is an example of commensalism because the moss lives on the tree and takes some water from the tree, but, there is no injury to the tree.
