Drawing of an acacia tree and acacia ants |
Acacia trees are tall trees that have a mutual relationship with acacia ants. The acacia ants defend the tree from predators and harm, but at the same time the acacia tree gives the ants food and shelter. This mutual relationship is due to coevolution. Coevolution is when two or more species have close relationship ecologically that causes one species to adapt, creating both species to adapt.
