Less competitive individuals are forced to go elsewhere to find resources in which type of competition?
- Exploitation
- Specific
- Direct
- Interference
Hint:
A dominant group hampers or intervenes the life of recessive group in this type of competition.
The correct answer is: Interference
- Competition involves two or more organisms fighting for same resource
- Competition can be classified into direct, indirect or interference competition
- Interference competition refers to fight between two individuals or groups where one is dominant and the other is recessive
- The dominant animal forces the recessive to clear the territory for finding resources for themselves
- A deliberate displacement of the recessive organisms occurs here
