species of lizard catches insects in the leaf litter on the ground, while the
other catches insects on tree branches. which statement is true of the two
lizard species?
o
a. they occupy different niches due to competition for food.
o
b. they have the same niche.
o
c. mutualism has forced them to give up competition
o
d. parasitism has forced them to take on different nic

A) They occupy different niches due to competition for food.

Explanation:

According to Joseph Grinnel - "An ecological niche is the distributional unit within which each species is held by its structural and instinctive limitation. No two species in the same general territory can occupy the same ecological niche". Hence, the two lizard species have separated their trophic niches i.e. the ecological niche in which they feed, as they both have common preys that is the insects. this will avoid competition and would provide enough food for both the species.

b.

blue stars have the highest surface temp

stellar distances are usually expressed in light-years

the measure of a star's brightness is called magnitude

hope this !
