Plants and animals share a very long history of intimate relationships and have evolved in response to each other’s influence. Briefly describe three actual relationships or interactions between plants and non-human animals. One should be mutually beneficial to both species, one should benefit the plant at the expense of the animal, and one should benefit the animal at the expense of the plant. Be sure to include details of the relationship, including the names of the organisms and specific benefits or expenses involved.
