Question

Which of the following situations would most likely lead to a uniform distribution of organisms?

a) the distribution of dung beetles that feed on freshly deposited dung in a cattle pasture
b)the distribution of wolves in Yellowstone National Park
c) the distribution of male beta fish defending their territories
d) the distribution of rooted, aquatic plants that grow to a height of about 1 meter in a large, deep pond

Answer 1

Option-C

Step-by-step explanation:

In an ecosystem, the individuals of a population can be distributed in one of the three ways: the random, clumped or uniform distribution.

The uniform distribution is the distribution in which the individuals are equally or regularly distributed in a particular space. This could be the result of the harm that could be done by the individuals and is observed in the population of both plants and animals.

In the given question, the male beta fish does not allow other betta fish to grow in its small territory and if finds fight, harm and sometimes can kill other beta fish.

Thus, Option-C is correct.
