Question

in which of the scenarios above would you expect the most competition between species a and species b?
o i
o ii
o iii
o all of these show equal competition
o none of these would result in competition.

Explanation:

Competition between species occurs when they share similar niches (resources, habitats, etc.). The more overlap in their niches, the more competition. In scenario III, the overlap (gray area) between Species A and Species B's niches is the largest compared to other scenarios. Scenario II has no overlap (so no competition from overlap), scenario I has less overlap than III, and scenario IV only has Species B.

Answer:

III
