Chapter 38.1, Problem 3LO
Summary Introduction
To determine: The two beneficial associations that can be found between plants and microorganisms.
Introduction: Microorganisms are widely associated with other organisms such as plants, animals, and decaying matter. The association of the microbes to the source of the environment is necessary to provide the energy source in the form of nutrients. The bacteria in turn release some organic or inorganic products that can be beneficial or harmful to the hosts.
