What is the principle of competitive exclusion principle?
The principle of competitive exclusion states that two species cannot occupy the same niche. If they do occupy the same niche, competition for food, space and limited resources will occur. Too much competition will occur until the best-adapted species cause the disappearance of the other.
Which occurs of two different species try to occupy the same niche?
interspecific competition
What statement best answers the competitive exclusion principle?
No two species can occupy the same ecological niche at the same time.
What happens when two species occupy the exact same niche-?
In a niche, only a single species can thrive. Competition, among other things, will eventually drive out or kill off the other species.
Why can't two similar species cannot have the same niche?
hi my name is noela. I am in the 5th grade. My teacher just taught us about why two similar species cannot have the same niche. The reason is......................................................................................... Two similar species cannot have the same niche because in order to have the same niche those two species would have to have to be identical. But no to species are identical so no to species can have the same niche. in order for it to be identical those two similar species would have to eat the same food, be eaten by the same predators, they would have to live in the same area, they would have to reproduce in the same ways, they would have to grow under the same temperature etc. etc. -noela They would outcompete each other for access to food and resouces.
If two mouse species tried to occupy the same niche in a meadow?
If 2 mouse species tried to occupy the same niche they would fight. The mice fight to right to occupy the niche. The winner of the fight gets the niche.
According to the competitive exclusion principle two species cannot continue to occupy the same?
Niche. If they occupy the same niche, then they are competing for the same resources. Eventually one species will evolve to be better suited for competition and the other species will become extinct. So it is then said that one species needs to evolve into a slightly different niche in order to end interspecific competition.
What is the principle of competitive exclusion principle?
The principle of competitive exclusion states that two species cannot occupy the same niche. If they do occupy the same niche, competition for food, space and limited resources will occur. Too much competition will occur until the best-adapted species cause the disappearance of the other.
Does in a particular environment two species can usually occupy the same niche?
True
Can the same organism occupy the same niche?
Not for long. Competition for resources will drive one species out.
What happens when two species occupy at the same exact niche?
Only one will survive
Which occurs of two different species try to occupy the same niche?
interspecific competition
What principle states that no two species can occupy the same niche in the same habitat at the same time?
The habitat is where an organism lives and has many different organisms within it. The niche is the purpose that organism fulfills in that habitat. No two species can occupy the same niche in the same habitat due to competition for that role.
What happen when two organism occupy same niche?
There is massive competition for resources resulting in one of the two species being driven away or made extinct.
What statement best answers the competitive exclusion principle?
No two species can occupy the same ecological niche at the same time.
What happens when to two organisms attempt to occupy the same niche?
Massive competition occurs when 2 organisms have the sane niche. The organisms are 2 species.
What occurs when different species try to occupy the same niche?
Possible: 1. may get along 2. one "push" the other out 3. interbred
