Answer:

resource partitioning

Explanation:

  • If the species live in an ecological niche where there is limited availability of resources then the organisms adapt the strategy of dividing the limited resources to survive and avoid competition and such a strategy is called resource partitioning.
  • In the given question, it has been given that the downy woodpecker moves from the bottom to the top whereas the white-breasted nuthatch moves in the opposite direction and hence they occupy different levels of the tree at different times and avoid competition.
  • <em>Thus, this is an example of resource partitioning. </em>
