Answer 1

Answer #1

Option c is the correct answer.

Competition is an interaction between two or among many organisms in which at least one suffers due to insufficient resources.

Option A is not correct because here resources are abundant and thus no competition will occur.

Option B is not correct because here insufficient resources do not affect the survival or reproduction of either lizard species.

Option D is not correct because in case of sufficient resources no competition occurs.

Suppose that a lizard species eats only one type of insect and the populations follow Lotka–Volterra dynamics. The intrinsic growth rate of insects in the absence of predators is 0.2 per week, and the mortality rate of the lizards in the absence of insects is 0.05 per week. The capture efficiency rate is 0.002, and the efficiency at which insect biomass is converted into predator biomass is 0.2. The lizard population will increase only if the number of insects is...

Question 1 (2pts): You are a biologist studying two species of lizards. Lizard Alays eggs in large clutches of 20-50. These clutches are buried and the lizard does not return to tend them. When the young hatch, they suffer high rates of predation. The few that survive grow to adulthood. Lizard B lays only two eggs. It tends to a nest until the young hatch and carries them on its back until they grow large enough to fend for themselves....

Until recently, there were two competing theories about the origin of our species- "modern Homo sapiens". The first (single African origin) is that all modern humans descended from a recent ancestor in Africa, less than 200,000 years ago, and that our ancestors replaced the archaic human species they found in their migrations, including Neanderthals and Denisovans. (In the last few years evidence from nuclear genomes of fossil humans has indicated that there was limited interbreeding between the ancestors of modern...
