What happens when two species occupy the exact same niche

Biology
1 answer:
katrin2010 [14]3 years ago
6 0

When two species occupy the exact same niche, there will be competition. There is usually a set amount of resources in an ecosystem, so when two species need the same resources, or occupy the same niche, there will eventually be competition.

Competition will lead to one of the species outcompeting the other one. Although this may be a long process, the more resources one of the species obtains, the more they will reproduce.

This is the exact opposite for the other species, they cannot obtain resources due to the other species, so they will start to die off.

Due to both the competition of resources and the lack of reproducing, the species that cannot obtain their niche likely will die off completely or become very scarce.

suppopse you were going to deisgn a system for the rapid diffusion of oxygen across a phosphlipid bilayer. according to fick's l
Llana [10]

Answer:

According to Fick's law, the rate of diffusion of any substance across any barrier is<u> directly proportional to the surface area of the membrane or any layer exposed. and the concentration of the diffusing substance available, but the rate is inversely proportional to the diffusion distance available.</u>

<u />

Thus the rate at which oxygen will move across the phospholipid  bilayer will depend on the concentration or amount  per mole  of the oxygen molecule hitting the phopholipid at  a prticular time and how permeable the phospholipd layer is to oxygen molecules, but the rate of its  movement across will be reduced as the distance between the phosphoslipid bilayer and the diffusing molecules  increases.

Therefore, the concentration of oxygen should be maximised, the surface area of the phospholipid  bilayer should also be maximized. the distances between the phopholipid and the  vessel containing the diffusing oxygen molecules should be drastically reduced. With this Fick's law  has been applied , and therefore maximum oxygen molecules can diffuse across.
