The given example suggests the principle of resource partitioning.

The resource partitioning is a method of division of resources present in a particular niche to avoid the competition. In this case, the organism divide the regions having the abundant resources and they do not interfere in each others region.

In this case, the resource partition takes place by dividing the regions in the flask. one species use he resources present in the middle region and other uses the resource in the bottom.

A wave with a height of 5 feet and a wavelength of 15 feet has a wave base of___.
dmitriy555 [2]

A wave with a height of 5 feet and a wavelength of 15 feet has a wave base of <u>7.5 feet</u>.

A. 7.5 feet

<u>Explanation:</u>

Wave base defines the depth of the water when it is in still condition.

Wave base is half of wavelength.

Wave base = wavelength/2

Given,

Wavelength = 15 feet

So, wave base = 15 feet/2 = 7.5 feet

When the wave height is divided by wavelength then it gives the steepness of the wave.

Therefore, the wave base is 7.5feet.
