He believes that the world around us is not real‚ and that the world of the forms is the true reality

interactions. Some of these interactions can become coevolution interactions. In other words‚ two species reciprocally affect each other evolutionarily. Brodie & Brodie (1990) used the “arms race” analogy in respect to a coevolution interaction between Thamnophis sirtalis and Taricha granulosa. The arm’s race analogy indicates the predator will increase their resistance to the prey’s defense mechanism. The prey will follow by increasing its defense mechanism and the circle will continue.
