Q1. The realized niches observed in nature are often larger than the fundamental niches of the organisms being observed. True Submit Q2. The competitive exclusion principle only applies when the niches of competing species are different (i.e., do not overlap). True Submit ● False Submit False Q3. Four snake species colonize an island at the same time. The species are biologically identical in every way and the island is habitable to them. If nothing changes, which of the following options is most likely to happen over time? All four species will coexist because they will divide up the prey on the island. All four species will go extinct because they have identical niches. D One species will develop a new realized niche and survive while the others go extinct because of competition. One species will persist, but we cannot predict which one; the others will go extinct because of competition.
