Document Summary

Interactive hypothesis (clements) community is a stable assemblage of closely linked species, having mandatory and predictable biotic interactions functions as an integrated unit species: are clustered with discrete boundaries between communities, table 53. 2 summary of species interactions. The interplay of coevolution and counteradaptation between the passion flower. Coevolution & counteradaptation between the passion flower vines and the. Butterflies is like an arms race: competition, occurs when two or more species in a community rely on similar limiting resources, two types of competition: Interference competition involves actual fighting (involves direct physical contact) cost a lot of energy-parties involved could get injured or die: exploitative competition involves consumption or use of resources, fig. 53. 2 niche overlap leads to competitive exclusion: fig. Is the combination of resources that the species uses in the absence of competitors: realized niche resources a pop. actually uses - biological constraints (example: competition, predation, resource limitation) restrict organisms to their realized niche.
