Question

competition: 10. complete the chart for intraspecific and interspecific competition. you just need 1 fact per item. you will use slide #43. intraspecific interspecific competitive exclusion: 11. what is competitive exclusion? resource partitioning: 12. what is resource partitioning? prediction, parasitism, and herbivory: 13. complete the table using the information from slide #46 about how organisms interact.

Explanation:

1. Intraspecific competition is among members of the same species, like lions competing for a mate. Interspecific competition is between different species, such as lions and hyenas competing for the same prey.
2. Competitive exclusion principle states that two species competing for the same limiting resource cannot co - exist at constant population values in the same niche.
3. Resource partitioning is the division of limited resources by species to help avoid competition in an ecological niche. For example, different bird species may feed at different parts of a tree.
4. Since no table content is provided, general information: Predation is when one organism (predator) hunts and eats another (prey). Parasitism is a relationship where one organism (parasite) lives on or in another (host) and harms it. Herbivory is when an organism eats plants.

Answer:

1. Intraspecific: Lions competing for a mate; Interspecific: Lions and hyenas competing for prey
2. Two species competing for the same limiting resource cannot co - exist at constant population values in the same niche.
3. Division of limited resources by species to avoid competition in an ecological niche.
4. Predation: One organism hunts and eats another. Parasitism: One organism lives on or in another and harms it. Herbivory: Organism eats plants.
