Two species of grasshoppers live in the same area. They both feed on plants, but the presence of one species does not affect either the survival or the reproduction of the other. What type of competition is this? a. Interference b. Exploitative c. Allelopathy d. This is not an example of competition. 7. Character displacement is likely to _______ the competition coefficients in two competing species and to _______ resource partitioning. a. increase; increase b. lower; increase c. lower; eliminate d. increase; lower 8. Suppose that two species of Darwin’s finches live on the same island and eat seeds, but one species tends to eat larger seeds than the other one does. Based on this observation, we can conclude that these species are engaged in a. competitive exclusion. b. allelopathy. c. interference competition. d. resource partitioning.
