Competition between animals in the savannah is triggered by many things. The different climatic changes keep affecting the resources available for the animals and this is a major cause for the competition.

What causes competition in plant community to occur?

Competition in plant communities occurs when plants compete for limited resources such as sunlight, water, nutrients, and space. This competition can lead to differences in growth rates, competitive abilities, and survival among different plant species within the community. Ultimately, the competition helps to shape the structure and composition of the plant community over time.


What are abiotic factors in the savanna?

The biotic factors of a tropical savanna includes vegetation that is dominated by different types of tall grasses with some shrubs and trees. The animals tend to be bigger than in the jungles.The abiotic factors of the tropical savanna include frequent fires from seasonal lightning, seasonal rainfall, times of drought and times of great rains, high temperatures, and a compact soil.What they meanAbiotic factors are chemical and physical factors of the environment like climate and soil type - 'non biology'Solar energy input is affected by season, cloud cover and changes in the Earth's orbit.Light is important for plants for photosynthesis, for seed germination and for the behaviour of animals like reproduction timeClimate are rainfall, wind and high temperatureTopography are the surface of the land like height of mountains, the positions of the slopes that affect drainage and the behaviour of organismOxygen availabilityEdaphic is connected with the soil like the pH of the soil, mineral salt of soil, the soil texture for example sandy soils are well drained and dry out quickly in hot weather but are never water logged in wet weather. Clay soils don't drain and restrain water in hot weather but are waterlogged in wet weather. The edaphic factors affect the plant distributionPollution in the air, water landCatastrophes are like earth quakes that disrupt the conditionsBiotic factors are things done by organisms like predation and competition - 'living'Competition like for food, habitat and mates can be either interspecific (between species) or intraspefic (within species)Mutualism is the relation between partnersGrazing, predation, parasitism is the relationship between 2 species where one benefit from the otherBiotic factors are density dependent which describes the factors that affect the size of the population relative to the area of the land. The bigger the population the greater the competition for food, habitat due to less land.Example- poor weather can reduce the number of animals that can have a nock on affect for predators. If the pH on the soil fails then it can affect the bacteria living there and the rate of decomposition will change


What causes the growth of food for most animals in the great rift valley?

Growth for grazing animals in the grasslands of the Rift Valley is dependent on annual rains.


How do savanna wildfires start?

Savanna wildfires can start from natural causes like lightning strikes or human activities such as agricultural burning, campfires, or discarded cigarettes. The dry and hot conditions prevalent in savannas create the ideal environment for fires to ignite and spread rapidly.

What are some interations between animals?

The five major types of species interactions, summarized in Figure 10, are competition, predation, parasitism, mutualism, and commensalism. These categories are based on whether each species causes benefit or harm to the other species in a given relationship.
