Which example best illustrates spatial partitioning? a. Owls hunting at night while hawks hunt during the day b. Different birds feeding on insects from separate parts of a tree c. Bees and flowers benefiting from each other d. Wolves hunting in packs

Answer 1

The example that best illustrates spatial partitioning is b. Different birds feeding on insects from separate parts of a tree. Spatial partitioning refers to the way in which different species or individuals in a habitat utilize different areas or resources to reduce competition, allowing them to coexist by occupying different niches within the same environment. In this case, the different birds are utilizing different parts of the tree to feed on insects, effectively minimizing overlap in their feeding areas.
