Populations depend on and <u>compete</u> with each other.
Explanation:
The competition between organisms and species is an interaction where both parties are harmed either by an external factor such as territory, water, food ...
Studies show that competition regulates demographic rates between species in an ecosystem.
And according to evolutionary theory, this competition for an external or internal factor is important for natural selection.
Consequently, competition requires species to adapt to change to survive or they will be in danger of disappearing.
Populations are defined as groups of living beings that live in a certain location. Usually, the term population is used to describe groups of persons, but it applies for groups of animals and plants as well. Populations depend on an compete with each other, either for resources, new lands or because they are natural enemies. Populations are constantly competing, which is the base of natural selection.
Terrestrial ecosystems are characterized by greater temperature fluctuations on both a diurnal and seasonal basis that occur in aquatic ecosystems in similar climates.
