Interspecific : Interspecific competition, in ecology, is a form of competition in which individuals of different species vie for the same resource in an ecosystem (e.g. food or living space). The other form of competition is intraspecific competition, which involves organisms of the same species.
Intraspecific : Intraspecific competition is a particular form of competition in which members of the same species vie for the same resource in an ecosystem (e.g. food, light, nutrients, space). This can be contrasted with Interspecific competition, in which different species compete.
Competition in nature can be divided into two main types, intraspecific and interspecific. Intraspecific competition occurs within the species; interspecific competition happens between species.
Because members of the same species have identical resource requirements and occupy the same ecological niche, therefore they are more likely to encounter shortages in shared resources (space, food, etc) than members of different species (who have fewer overlapping resource requirements). In addition, when a prey population is low, the species can always prey on another food that is part of their diet. For instance, the lions and cheetahs have the same antelope and gazelle prey. If those animals' population suddenly decrease, the lions and cheetahs can always prey on another animal. This way, the lions and cheetahs do not fight and so, the intraspecific competition is more fierce than the interspecific competition.
intraspecific comp: competition which occurs between the organisms of the same species
interspecific comp: competition between organisms of different species for limited resources such as space food...
Interspecific competition.
An overlap in their niches
Being in a population is what causes interactions between an organism and another. So it's the interspecific (between different species) and intraspecific (between the same species) interactions that cause evolutionary pressure. The main types of interactions are competition, mutualism, and parasitism. If the organism were just in a world by itself, it would have absolutely no need to evolve. That's because it would be able to get all the food and resources it needs and wants. So again, it's the interaction between organisms that really counts.
Interspecific and Intraspecific The types of inter-specific interactions are: a) Symbiasis (+,+); eg: algae and fungi b) Commensalism (+,o); eg: epiphytes and lianas c) Proto-cooperation (+,+); eg: birds and cattles * + = advantage taker - = sufferer o = no harm, no advantage The types of intra-specific interactions are: a) Colonization b) Organization c) Aggregation
answer difference between ontogeny and phylogeny?
Interspecific competition.
The two types of competition are intraspecific competition and interspecific competition. Interspecific takes place between two different species while intraspecific happens between the same species.
Interspecific competition is the competition between two or more species of different organisms competing for the same resources. Intraspecific competition is the competition between two or more of the same species fighting for the same resources.
Interspecific cooperation refers to help or assistance of individuals belonging to different species (a case of this is mutualism), whereas intraspecific cooperation is observed between individuals within the same species
interspecific relationship is when two or more different species interact with each other. while intraspecific is the interaction between the same kind of species. :)
It would be intraspecific competition if this paramecium were alone in the culture; competing for limited resources. Interspecific if some other species were in the culture. Answer C is totally out, as competition and cooperation are not dichotomies, but exist in real situations same species or not.
Did you mean intraspecific competition? If that is the case, it is competition within a species. This is contrary to interspecific competition which is competition between different species. Hope that helps. answ2 The prefix Inter means 'between', the prefix Intra means 'within'.
In reference to Biology, interspecific relationships are relationships between species. Intraspecific relationships are relationships between one species, just as an added tidbit of info.
CompetitionCompetition among members of the same species is known as intraspecific competition, while competition between individuals of different species is known as interspecific competition.
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.

Competition.If the competition occurs between individuals of the same species it is called intraspecific competition.If the competition is between individuals of different species it is called interspecific competition.
