Excerpt from Plant-Animals: A Study in Symbiosis During some ten years' work in a small marine laboratory in Brittany it has fallen to me not infrequently to attempt to explain to curious visitors what were my objects in going to and fro upon the shore, in wading among the seaweeds and in bringing into the laboratory minute, worm-like animals which represented often my sole "catch." I discovered that many of the visitors to the laboratory became interested in the work that was going on, and that, though they disclaimed a knowledge of biology, they followed with understanding and interest the story of the behaviour and life histories of "the worms": - indeed, they succeeded generally in putting to me pertinent and unanswerable questions with respect to these "plant-animals."
