Two closely-related species overlap at the southern edge of the range for species A, and the northern edge of the range for species B. Both species consume the same prey, but differ in their preferred prey size. Researchers collected individuals from the part of each species’ range where they do not overlap. They compared the consumption of prey across a range of prey sizes for these individuals in experiments where they were grown alone (solid lines) and compared this to when the species were grown together (dashed lines). Their results are in the attached figure. Part A How does the mean size of prey consumed changes for species A when together a) increase b) decrease c) stay the same Part B How does the range of prey sizes consumed change for species B when together with species A? a) increase b) decrease c) stay the same Part C Which species is the stronger competitior and why?

Some species of animals gain physiological advantages byexploiting the specialized physiological capabilities of otherspecies. Explain how marine mammals that prey on teleost fishrather than invertebrates illustrate this principle. Also explainhow carnivorous mammals that prey on herbivorous mammalsin deserts illustrate the same principle.
