True or False 1 Interspecific competition could affect the r

True or False?

1. Interspecific competition could affect the realized niche, whereas intraspecific competition would not

2. Interspecific competition applies to antagonistic interactions between species, but intraspecific competition occurs within species.

3. Interspecific competition can reduce population densities below what they would be from intraspecific competition alone.

4. Interspecific competition involves interference, and intraspecific involves resource exploitation

5. If the fundamental niches of two species overlap, then only intraspecific competition is expected to occur.

Solution

True: Interspecific competition is between two species while intraspecific is within one species. True: Two species compete for same resource in interspecific competition False:Interspecific competition has large impact on population densities False True: there will be less or no competition between species if two niche overlap
