Competition for food, light and space is most severe in:
-
- Distantly related species growing in different habitats
- Closely related species growing in the same area or niche
- Closely related species growing in different habitats
- Distantly related species growing in the same habitats
Correct Option: B
Competition for food, light and space is most severe in closely related species occupying the same niche or habitat. Since closely related species have the same desire of food, light and space and in the same area than all requirements are found in limited amount of proportion or quota, they have more competition.
