When different animals that live in the same geographic area (sympatric species) compete for the same set of resources, mostly food, and space, it is called _______ competition.
- Interspecific
- Intraspecific
- Specific
- Non-specific
Hint:
Different animals will belong to different species.
The correct answer is: Interspecific
- Competition refers to the situation where two or more individuals compete for survival
- In an ecosystem, two or more organisms co-exist
- The organisms require several factors like air, food, water and shelter for survival
- These resources deplete with the increase in number of organisms. As a result, the organisms compete with each other for the same.
- When more than one species of organisms compete with each other, it is called as interspecific competition
