Answer:

True

Explanation:

As per NOAA definitions climate is defined by the temperature and pressure,  their variations over a certain period of time and their averages for a local , regional or global entity. As per the Köppen system, there are five types of climate based on the variation of temperature and precipitation, namely –  

a) Dry Climates

b) Polar Climates

c) Moist Mid-latitude Climates with Mild Winters

d) Moist Mid-Latitude Climates with Cold Winters

e) Tropical Moist Climates

Competitive exclusion is most likely to occur between two (A) closely related species occupying different niches (B) closely rel
labwork [276]

Answer:

Closely related species occupying the same niche.

Explanation:

Competitive exclusion principle states that the two species cannot exist together if they share the same resources. The one species completely exclude the other species from their niche.

Competitive exclusion principle generally occurs between the species that occupy the same niche and are closely related with each other. The competitive exclusion principle first explained between the species <em>P. aurelia </em>and <em>P. caudatum.</em>

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

Two species of closely related frogs are found in the same pond high in the Andes of South America. Both species only have teeth
IgorLugansk [536]

Complete question:

Two species of closely related frogs are found in the same pond high in the Andes of South America. Both species only have teeth on the top jaw. One has small teeth for holding small live prey prior to swallowing. The other species has very large sharp teeth for injuring and killing large prey prior to biting off pieces of flesh for consumption. The above is an example of:

  • Directional selection
  • Analogous structures
  • Character displacement
  • Hybridization
  • Vestigial structures

Answer:

  • Character displacement

Explanation:

Competition is an ecological and evolutive process very common in nature. Competition might be intra- or interspecific. Competition between different species in a community or ecosystem might be due to the same resource use, or the same territory, shelter, etcetera. When a resource is useful for two or more species, and limited, they compete to gain it.

The principle of competitive exclusion states that different species with the same requirements sharing the niche can not coexist indefinitely based on the same limited resource. When <u>two competing species coexist, this is because of niche partitioning or niche differentiation</u>.

Differentiation of effective niche is closely related to <u>character displacement.</u>

<u>Character displacement</u> is the result of interspecific competition, in which two or more species that live in the same habitat manage to avoid competition by developing different traits. Morphological divergence, or any adaptative trait development, fixated genetically, is the product of niche segregation. Species tend to differentiate morphologically in the presence of strong competitors. Traits divergence favors coexistence in the same place.

In the exposed example, both species live in the same pond. But to avoid competition and competitive exclusion, species developed different teeth sizes to feed on different prey items.

"Which statement is the best interpretation of the material presented in the chart?
Neporo4naja [7]
After reading the contents of the table shown in the attached picture, I am pretty sure that the <span>statement which is the best interpretation of the material presented in the chart is being shown in the first option:  </span><span>Scientific explanations are built by combining evidence that can be observed with what people already know. I choose this option as I recognized sort of 'cause&effect' information. In the first one you can see some well-known facts and in the other picture you can see accurate information gathered by scientists due to those facts.

Hope that helps!</span>
