Question
which scenario is the best example of competition between individuals of the same species? (1 point)
fish compete for shelter in a coral reef.
hermit crabs compete for shells to live in.
trees in a forest compete for sunlight.
savannah predators compete to consume antelope.
Intraspecific competition occurs between individuals of the same species. Hermit crabs competing for shells (a resource) to live in is an example of intraspecific competition as they are of the same species. Fish competing for shelter in a coral reef - if they are different species, it's interspecific. Savannah predators (different species like lions, hyenas) competing for antelope is interspecific. Trees in a forest (if different species) competing for sunlight is interspecific.
