Explanation:

The passage details the interactions between ants, butterflies, and oregano plants in a sequential manner (ants invade, plant responds, butterflies are attracted) and also describes the nature of these interactions. This indicates a use of descriptive and sequential text structure. There is no significant use of loaded - language, no heavy reliance on comparing/contrasting survival strategies, and while studies are mentioned, it's not the main way of communicating the interactions.

Answer:

By using a mixture of descriptive and sequential text structure to demonstrate the interconnected nature of the ants, butterflies, and oregano plants
