lichen growing on tree bark
Deserts are arid. There is no such thing as a 'semi-arid' desert. Semi-arid regions are steppes or grasslands.
An example of cold desert commensalism is the relationship between lichen and a tree in the Arctic tundra. The lichen benefits from having a stable substrate provided by the tree, while the tree is not significantly affected by the presence of the lichen.
commensalism
Commensalism is a type of symbiotic relationship where one organism benefits while the other is neither helped nor harmed. In desert ecosystems, an example of commensalism could be seen with epiphytic plants, like certain types of moss or lichen, that grow on cacti. These epiphytes gain a place to live and access to moisture without affecting the cactus, which remains unaffected by their presence. This relationship highlights the adaptations of organisms to thrive in harsh desert conditions.

Plants
it would be commensalism because the geko needs the desert to live and the desert stays the same!
Mutualism, Commensalism, and Parasitism.
commensalism is important to any what kind
A bird living on the top of a hippo, or a bird living in a cactus is an example of commensalism...:D
ferns or orchids
no, because leech is an example of an ectoparasite
