Biology

Answer:

Interspecific competition is a competition between two species for obtaining the same resource. For example, lion and leopards are cat species but feed on the same prey so they compete for the same resource.

Interspecific competition may lead to resource partitioning through the change in their niche by one species to avoid interspecific competition.  

For example, <em>Anolis evermanni</em> and <em>Anolis gundlachi</em> are two species of lizards live on Puerto Rico island and compete for the same resource i.e., insects so to avoid interspecific competition they did the resource partitioning.

Anolis gundlachi feeds near the ground and  Anolis evermanni prey on upper branches of trees so in this way they avoid competetion.

Elenna [48]

Answer:

Wildlife is living organisms, like plants and animals that live anywhere in the world that they are not isolated in a certain area.

Explanation:

Each wildlife creature lives in an ecosystem that their bodies can tolerate and be able to survive in.

  • Penguin´s bodies are adapted to keep them warm in Antarctica, if they are in warm climates they would overheat.
  • Cold-blooded animals like iguanas cannot live in cold climates because their body temperature would be according to what they feel, so living in cold climates would cause them to die from hypothermia.

Hope it helps:)

Doss [256]

Answer:

The reason why Dr Naskrecki thinks he suspects there are so many more than the 2,829 species they have already identified living in the park is because there are many species that has been identified in the world because humans haven’t gotten to most parts of the earth which makes it a lot undiscoverable.

Another one is that the species multiply rapidly and easily.
