Resource partitioning
Resource partitioning refers to differences in resource use
between species regardless of the origin of the differences. Similar species
can coexist in the same ecological community without one pushing the others to
extinction through competition. Species compete for the same resources which
include nutrients and habitats which are the raw materials needed by organisms
to grow, live, and reproduce. For the question given above, the divergence in
lizards is an example of resource partitioning.
Explanation:
Biotic factors such as the presence of autotrophs or self-nourishing organisms such as plants, and the diversity of consumers also affect an entire ecosystem. Abiotic factors affect the ability of organisms to survive and reproduce. Abiotic limiting factors restrict the growth of populations.
One is were you bang someone else to reproduce and the other is where you bang yourself to reproduce
