Chapter 56.3, Problem 3R
Summary Introduction
To review:
The mechanism by, which species that depend on same limited
Introduction:
An ecological community is composed of many species, which often depend on the same limited resources for their food and shelter. The lottery model or neutral model depends on the chance factor in ensuring that two species that depend on the same resources in same area are able to co-exist.
