Due to resource partitioning, zebra relative density changes over time and grass height.
<h3>What is resource partitioning?</h3>
- Resource partitioning is the process by which due to natural selection, competing species use different resources and niches.
- In the case of African savanna, right after peak rain all the three grazers (zebra, wildebeest, and Thomson’s gazelle) have high density.
- After rain in one month relative density of zebras is maximum but it becomes nearly zero after three months due to high density of wildebeest and then increases a little after six months.
- The density of zebras is greatest when the grass is tallest and most abundant because of resource partitioning as zebras get the most out of eating tall grass.
- Zebras can eat and digest faster taller grasses with many stems.
- This gives them an advantage over other grazers in terms of nutrition when the grass is tall.

Answer:I also need help with this, can someone please give us the answer
Explanation:
Answer:
C) layering, directional pressure
Explanation:
The foliated metamorphic rocks are those rocks subjected to heat and pressure during metamorphism, characterized by presenting a parallel alignment of minerals, which gives the rock an appearance of layers or bands.
Answer:
The boundary between two air masses that have different temperatures or humidity. In the mid-latitude areas of the Earth, where warm tropical air meets cooler polar air, the systems of fronts define the weather and often cause precipitation to form.
