Observations of commensalism of plants may simply be the result of difficulties in identifying effects of the interaction on the "0" species (i.e. the species assumed to be unaffected). As in neutralism, one can not assert positively that there is no competition or benefit to either plant species.
There are many examples of commensalism in a river. One example is a frog sitting on a lily pad because the frog can rest and eat on it without hurting it.
Commensalism is a relationship between two organisms where one organism benefits and the other is neither harmed nor helped. For the most part, moths have a mutualistic relationship with their environment. An example would be moths laying their eggs inside of a flower - the flower has a chance to spread its pollen to other flowers and reproduce in that way, and the moth gets to lay its eggs. This is, however, on a case by case scenario, and the yucca baccata (a type of plant also known as the Spanish Dagger) "cheats" and allows the yucca moth larvae to die after pollination.
The different populations in a community can interact in different kinds of relations with each other. Example include symbiosis, parasitism, commensalism, etc.
A real life example is the chloroplasts found in plant cells.
The dependent variable is what changes. For example, if you are growing a plant, the growth of the plant depends on the amount of light it is given. The growth of the plant is the dependent variable.

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
Humans getting milk from cows would be an example of commensalism. Commensalism describes a relationship that exists between two organisms in which one organism benefits without harming the other organism.
