Predation is an interaction between two species best described how? One species benefits from the interaction at a cost to the other species. Both species benefit from the interaction. One species benefits from the interaction, and the other is unaffected. Neither species benefit from the interaction.

Read this quote from Charles Darwin (from Origin of Species). What is he describing? "Thus, I can understand how a flower and a bee might slowly become, either simultaneously or one after the other, modified and adapted to each other in the most perfect manner, by the continued preservation of all the individuals which presented slight deviations of structure mutually favorable to one another." An interaction network. A predator/prey cycle. O Coevolution. An obligate mutualism.
In which type of species interaction do both species have lower success when the other species is present? Group of answer choices mutualism commensalism competition predation
A negative feeback loop would be: Preditors and prey keeping each other’s populations in check so there is no overpopulation. Preditors out competeing prey. Prey outcompeting preditors. Both preditors and prey being outcompeted by another organism.
What is competitive exclusion? Choose All That Apply an antagonistic interaction between populations of two different species when one species outcompeting another species for resources an interaction between two species that can result resource partitioning an interaction that is not a factor in determining niches in a community
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.
The relationship between impalas and oxpeckers, the birds that feed on their ticks, is an example of a mutualism, not commensalism, because one species benefits and the other is not helped or harmed neither species benefits both species are harmed one species benefits but the other is harmed both species benefit, not just one
Yes or No: If a species is a good intraspecific competitor, is it necessarily a good interspecific competitor? O Yes! Species that are good intraspecific competitors are always also good interspecific competitors. Competition is competition. Species are either good at it or not good at it. O No! A species that is a good intraspecific competitor could be a poor interspecific competitor or a good interspecific competitor. Intra- and interspecific competiton are two different things.
Species within a community interact with each other in a variety of ways. Match each scenario with the type of species interaction it describes. Competition Commensalism Consumption Mutualism grass and clover both using the mice eating seeds lizards catching insects for food limited nutrients in the same patch of soil from sunflowers Answer Bank orchids growing harmlessly on branches of trees bees receiving nectar in exchange for pollinating flowers doves and cardinals eating seeds from the same limited number of plants
Interaction exhibited by the organisms named cat and rat is called; 1: mutualism 2: commensalism 3: predation 4: parasitism 5: competition
What would a random distribution of species in an environment indicate? that females are antagonistically interacting in the population that males are antagonistically interacting in the population resources are uniformly distributed throughout the habitat O resources are randomly distributed throughout the habitat
Which of the following do NOT represent examples of interactions within communities? * Defence mechanisms AND intraspecific competition interspecific competition defense mechanisms defence mechanisms AND interspecific competition intraspecific competition
Which of the following communities would be most resilient to the removal of 1 species? a community where the top predators have many food sources, but the primary consumers do not a community where the primary consumers have many food sources, but the top predators do not a community where each organism is the only food source of another organism a community where every organism has multiple food sources
