Intraspecific competition (competition among member of the same species living in the same area) would increase as population size increases. An exception would be social or colonial populations that share resources (bees, ants, primates, colonial plants [plants that send multiple stems up from one root mass], etc.). Interspecific competition (competition between two different species) between species with similar resource requirements would also increase.
Population refers to the number of people in a group. Competition refers to the struggle among those people for resources such as food and shelter.
This is why you don't use Answers.com! COMPETITION **** :)
From a sample of a population, the properties of the population can be inferred.
Predators can affect population size through increased or decreased predation events. Direct and indirect competition between members of the same species can limit population size.
If the amount of available nesting space is limited, some woodpeckers will not be able to raise young. My Science teacher told me the answer.
Competition can occur between individuals of the same species, called intraspecific competition, or between different species, called interspecific competition. Studies show that intraspecific competition can regulate population dynamics (changes in population size over time). This occurs because individuals become crowded as a population grows.
Population size influences growth rate through factors like resource availability, competition, and density-dependent factors such as disease and predation. In general, smaller populations tend to have higher growth rates due to fewer limiting factors, while larger populations may experience competition and other factors that can slow growth rates. However, the relationship can vary depending on specific environmental conditions and population dynamics.
the small barnacles can live only where the big ones cannot. Therefore, there is competition between the big barnacles and small ones; the competition is solely based on competing for space.

They kill and harm eachother, thus decreasing population. Hope that helps :)
the relationship between grain size and strength can be determined by the Hall- Patch relationship of Strength of materials.
Find the relationship between internal efficiency and school size?
Let's put it this way. Say you have a killerwhale and a penguin. Killerwhales are major predators to penguins. Now, say the killerwhale population increases. The penguins would be eaten more by the killerwhales, then causing a population decrease for the penguins. If the population decreases, they're won't be enough penguins, and they most likely will become extinct, as well as causing a population decrease for the killerwhales as well. Whereas, vis versa, they're were a killerwhale population decrease. The penguins would be less hunted, therefore, creating a population increase for the penguins.
