Answer:

C. Resource partitioning

Explanation:

When two species with shared resource requirement differentiate their niche from each other so that they can coexist in the same habitat, the process is referred to as resource partitioning.

In the given example, both two-spot and the three-spot avenger beetles hunt for the prey at dawn when not present together. However, when these two species are present together in the same region, they separate their niche temporally by hunting at a different time of a day so that they can survive in the same habitat.  Hence, it represents resource partitioning.

Brittle deformation of rock bodies is characterized by slow internal flow of the rock material. True False
KonstantinChe [14]

False. Brittle deformation happens when there is a continuous force applied to a rock. As the force is gradually increased, little change occurs in the rock until suddenly it fractures.
The rocks that undergo brittle deformation tend to fracture into joints and faults.
