Question
Chapter 28, Problem 2RQ
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The way through which resource partitioning is a logical outcome of the competitive exclusion principle.
Introduction:
The competitive exclusion principle determines that no species differentiation is occurring in such area where resource partitioning occurs between species. Each of the species needs a set of

- What is the difference between competitive exclusion and resource partitioning?arrow_forwardWhich of the following can explain why species are able to coexist, even if the competitive exclusion principle is generally true? a) Species may be competitively equivalent, with the outcome of each competitive encounter being essentially random. b) Competitive exclusion may take many generations; prior to that point, there will be coexistence. c) Spatial heterogeneity in the distribution and concentrations of limiting resources can result in variation in the strength of competition across the landscape. choose all the answers that apply.arrow_forwardWhich statement about the classic competition experiments involving two Paramecium species is FALSE? The experiment involved interspecific competition. The experiment involved exploitation competition. Each species, when grown alone, exhibited logistic growth. When grown together, the species exhibited logistic growth, but each reached a lower carrying capacity than when it was grown alone.arrow_forward
- Discuss competition between species, the competitive exclusion principle, and the phenomenon of niche or resource partitioning. How do they compare and/or contrast?arrow_forwardYour short answer should be 2-5 sentences depending on the question. (Ch. 54). Please answer both questions. 1) Explain how the competitive exclusion principle can lead to resource partitioning in a community. 2) Explain how dominant species, keystone species, and ecosystem engineers exert strong control on community structure.arrow_forwardA forest fire is an example of ________ regulation. a. density-dependent b. density-independent c. r-selected d. K-selectedarrow_forward
- The competitive exclusion principle is best defined as Multiple Choice the competition among individuals of the same species in the same location. the principle that two species that occupy the same niche cannot coexist indefinitely. an interaction between species that enhances the fitness of the exploiting individual while reducing the fitness of the exploited individual. the principle that if an organism allocates energy to one function, such as growth or reproduction, it reduces the amount of energy available to other functions.arrow_forwardThe moray eel and cleaner wrasse story at the beginning of the chapter is an example of which type of community interaction? O Competition O Mutualism O Parasitism O Predationarrow_forwardBiologically, what conditions are necessary for stable coexistence of competitors? Describe the major ways that species can adapt to enhance the probability of stable coexistence.arrow_forward
- Which of the following statements is correct regarding the competitive exclusion concept? a. multiple species can’t share the exact same niche within a community b. the realized niche of a species is different from its fundamental niche. c. competition within a population results in the success of the best-adapted individuals. d. two species cannot coexist within the same habitat.arrow_forwardQuestion 3 Which of the following does not directly affect the intensity of competition? Question 3 options: A) Niche overlap. B) Niche breadth. C) The density of competitors. D) The presence of similar species. Question 4 When disturbance is frequent, competition is often less intense.
