IV. Species Interactions B. Consumer-Resource C. Competition 1. Types: - exploitative/‘scramble’ – organisms remove what they can, and neither make get enough - territorial/ ‘contest’ – competition for access to the resource, with ‘winner take all’ 2. Responses - Competititve exclusion (one species wins) - Coexistence by resource partitioning

IV. Species Interactions B. Consumer-Resource C. Competition D. Mutualisms 1. Types: - trophic: involve species with complementary feeding relationships and they share food (mycorrhizae) - defensive: one species provides defense to another, in exchange for some service or food (ant-acacia) - dispersive: one species disperses pollen or fruit in exchange for food 2. Responses - Increase frequency and intimacy - May increase the probability of extinction if an obligate relationship develops
