Antelopes and elephants feed on the same species of grasses and shrubs in a savanna and the fitness of each species is reduced w

Interspecific competition occurs between antelopes and elephants.

The term "competition" refers to the process that takes place among many species as they fight for the same limited resources in order to maintain their own existence. This struggle over resources occurs among organisms because these species occupy niches that overlap, and as a result, they are compelled to use the same resources like food, water, and shelter.

Competition can be either interspecific or intraspecific. The term "interspecific competition" refers to a type of competition that occurs between various species that live in the same biological area and are dependent on the same source of food.

In the question, both antelopes and elephants feed on the same grass and shrub species. Therefore they compete amongst themselves as a result of which their fitness is reduced.

True or false: during stressful events, there is decreased blood supply to the skin, which results in "goose bumps."

Sonbull [250]

False.
In a stressful event, there will be a hormone released to the blood called adrenaline. Adrenaline hormone can prepare the body for fight or flight response. One of the effects of this hormone is making the muscle around hair called musculus arrector pili contracted. This contraction of the muscle is what causing the goosebumps. The decreased blood supply has no role in this event.
