- Can a species’ niche be influencedby interspecific competition?arrow_forwardThe principle of competitve exclusion states thata) Competition between two species always causes extinction or emigration of one species.b) Two species will stop reproducing until one species leaves the habitat.c) Two species cannot coexist in the same habitat. d) Two species that have exactly the same niche cannot coexist in a community.arrow_forwardAre your importance values similar to importance values for the same species in the other community?
