Summary Introduction
To explain: The
Introduction: The interference competition can be defined as the type of competition that occurs in organisms that result in one organism preventing the other from using resources that are present in limited amounts. Exploitation competition occurs where equal distribution of the limited resources takes place among all the organisms.
