Answer:

Altruism

  • Giving a few canned goods to the local food bank for its annual food drive

Reciprocity

  • Helping someone move her couch after she helped you study for an upcoming exam
  • The biological relationship between cleaner fish and large predators in the ocean, in which cleaner fish keep the predator

Explanation:

Altruism is a biological concept used to describe the action of an organism which reduces its own fitness but increases the fitness of another organism. Reciprocity, on the other hand, refers to cooperation between two unrelated organisms in which the beneficial actions of one to the other is reciprocated either in the short or medium term.

Giving a few canned goods to the local food bank for its annual food drive is an action done to benefit those that patronize the food bank without any hope of it being reciprocated. Hence, it is considered altruism.

Helping someone move her couch after she helped you study for an upcoming exam and the biological relationship between cleaner fish and large predators in the ocean, in which cleaner fish keep the predator are both considered reciprocity.
