What is higher in elevation the Cascade Range Mojave Desert or the Ozark Plateau?

The Cascade Range is higher in elevation compared to the Mojave Desert and the Ozark Plateau. The Cascade Range is a major mountain range in western North America, extending from southern British Columbia through Washington and Oregon to Northern California. It includes several peaks over 10,000 feet in elevation, including Mount Rainier and Mount Hood. In contrast, the Mojave Desert is a lower-elevation desert region in the southwestern United States, while the Ozark Plateau is a highland region primarily in Arkansas and Missouri but generally lower in elevation compared to the Cascade Range.


What are five symbiotic factors of the desert?

Mutualistic relationships between desert plants and mycorrhizal fungi help plants access scarce nutrients. Desert plants and animals often rely on each other for pollination to ensure their survival. Some desert animals, like the yucca moth and the yucca plant, have a mutualistic relationship where the moth pollinates the plant while laying its eggs. Parasitic relationships between some desert organisms, like mistletoe plants, draw nutrients from host plants. Decomposers breaking down dead plant and animal matter in the desert provide nutrients for other organisms.
