 ===== Assignment =====
-Propose a mathematical model to investigate mutualistic investment, its potential trade-offs and their consequences for the longevity of ant species coexistence in this tripartite interaction involving a myrmecophyte (plant), two ant species which compete to occupy its domatia and a fungus they cultivate.
+Propose a mathematical model to investigate mutualistic investment, its potential trade-offs and their consequences for the persistence of ant species coexistence in this tripartite interaction involving a myrmecophyte (plant), two ant species which compete to occupy its domatia and a fungus that ants cultivate.

   - Is the coexistence of the two ant species possible?
-  - Is there an optimal proportion of the two strategies in the worker force? (A proportion that leads to the greatest ant population, or leads to the greatest growth rates...)
   - Will the scenario proposed by Orivel //et al.// lead to competitive exclusion, as proposed by the authors ?
+  - Is there an optimal proportion of the two strategies in the worker force? (A proportion that leads to the greatest ant population, or leads to the greatest growth rates...)
 Further well-grounded questions from the group are welcome.
