The principle of competitive exclusion states that
- (A) two .species car. not coexist in the same habitat.
- (B) competition between two species always causes extinction or emigration of one species.
- (C) two species that have exactly the same niche cannot coexist in a community.

The principle of competitive exclusion states that(A) two species cannot coexist in the same habitat.(B) competition between two species always causes extinctionor emigration of one species.(C) two species that have exactly the same niche cannot coexistin a community.(D) two species will stop reproducing until one species leavesthe habitat
BLANK between species with BLANK ecological niches means they are les likely to occur sympatrically
A) Competition; similar
B) Predation; similar
C) Competition; dissimilar
D) Predation; dissimilar
E) None of the above
According to the competitive exclusion principle, two species cannot exist together if they occupy the same niche. Either they diverge their niches so they can coexist or one species will die out.All of the following are consistent with the principle of competitive exclusion EXCEPT
Select one:
a. Birds and bats both consume flying insects, but birds are active in the day and bats are active at night.
b. Two species that share the same niche will exclude other competing species.
c. Different bird species forage for insects in different parts of the same tree.
d. When two species of Paramecium are grown in the same medium, one strain will eventually eliminate its competitor.
