In the
evolutionary sense fitness refers to the measure of reproductive success of an
individual or of organisms in general. Those organisms that leave the largest
number of mature offspring are the fittest. Fitness can be achieved through survival
or mortality selection, mating success or sexual selection, and family size or
fecundity selection. Fitness is critical for a species’ survival and is a major
adaptation that all organisms do through a long period of time. <span> </span></span>
Answer:
The correct answer is B. exploitation
Explanation:
Exploitation competition occurs when the interaction of two species is indirect when they complete for the same resource like food, place, etc. The use of resources by one individual species reduces the amount of resources for the other species leading to competition.
So over time the more fit species will out complete the less fit species. So here two species of bird feed on the same food but at different times and so they reduce resources for each other which is an example of exploitation competition.
