Answer:

D) Radioactive sulfur.

PLS HELP!!! What best describes the relationship between
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Interspecific competition

Explanation:

Interspecific competition occurs when two different species occupy the same environment as they coexist and depend on the same limited resources for survival. As a result of these limited resources, there's competition between the different species with each species having their different levels of fitness. Their level of fitness determines how well they will complete with other species. This will also determine if they will go extinct or thrive in such environment where there's interspecific competition.

The graph given shows the growth of the relative population size of two different species grown together.

It shows that P. aurelia, with time, outcompetes P. coudatum.

This graph clearly suggest that interspecific competition has occurred. Both species are competing for the same limited resources.

P. aurelia has a greater fitness which enables it to outcompete the other species sharing the same environment with it.

Interspecific competition beats describes the relationship between the two species in graph B.

This causes your rib cage to pull upward and outward when you inhale. When you exhale the exact opposite happens.
