Answer:
The correct answer is - intrasexual selection.
Explanation:
Intrasexual selection is the act of competing with other members of one's own sex for various reasons such as high status, mating, area, and many more as well as the evolutionary process responsible for this competition. The great examples of these are antlers of deers and big size showy feathers of the peacocks to attract their males.
Thus, the correct answer is - intrasexual selection.
The removal of Balanus shows that the realized niche of Chthamalus is smaller than its fundamental niche. <span>These two species of barnacle do not show competitive exclusion.</span>

Answer:
Taking more samples from different parts of an acre.
Explanation:
Validity and accuracy of the data is crucial for any serious research. In this particular case, the most accurate data would be obtained if earthworms would be counted on the whole acre. Of course, this would consume lot of time, people, money etc. That's why methods for estimation are used. Estimation best works with large number of samples. Since one acre equals over 4000 square meters, taking only five samples from such a big area is simply not enough for obtaining valid data.
One of the possible ways to improve estimation is to take more samples per acre while avoiding taking adjacent samples because it could be possible that number of earthworms in one part of an acre is increased (or decreased) for any reason, which would lead us to wrong conclusion.
