		• The weevil is part of the community of that single tree, which supports the lives of many thousands of individuals of many species, most on the tree but some within the tree.
		• If we continue to zoom in on the weevil to the microscopic level, we discover that inside the weevil’s gut there are billions of bacteria living symbiotically with the weevil, without which the weevil could not digest its food.
		If a giraffe begins to browse acacia leaves, the tree immediately begins pumping alkaloids into all its leaves which make its leaves not only nasty-tasting but poisonous to the giraffe.
