Question

"forage use by one species does not affect forage use by another species" is the definition of:

a. intraspecific competition
b. supplementarity
c. interspecific competition
d. complementarity

Answer 1

The correct answer is B supplementarity.

In our example, we can see that the two species can co-exist. These two species can forage in the same habitat, without disturbing the other or compete. This means that they are supplementary - they supplement each other.
