What is resource partitioning and how is it an adaptation to competition? Provide an
example.

Definition:

Resource partitioning is the division of limited resources by species to help avoid competition in an ecological niche.

In any environment, organisms compete for limited resources, so organisms and different species have to find ways to coexist with one another.

Example:

Some lizard species appear to coexist because they consume insects of differing sizes.

starchy vegetables are high in carbohydrates.

starchy vegetables contain more carbohydrates than non-starchy vegetables.

explanation:

there are two primary categories of carbohydrates, essentially differentiated on the basis of their carbohydrate content (which is in the form of starch - a complex carbohydrate):

those vegetables which contain little amounts of starch are termed as non-starchy vegetables, and some examples include: artichokes, broccoli and bean sprouts.

vegetables high in their starch content are distinguished as starchy vegetables, and some examples include: potatoes, chickpeas and corn.
