You’ve done a large series of experiments, growing different combinations of crop plants together. Which of the following plots would identify species that are particularly strong in terms of interspecific competition?

a.Highest total biomass per plot, when grown in monoculture.
b.Grams/individual is higher than in monoculture, no matter what other species are growing in combination.
c.Lowest total biomass per plot, when grow in monoculture.
d.Grams/individual is highest when grown in monocultur

Respuesta :

Correct answer: B). Grams/individual is higher than in monoculture, no matter what other species are growing in combination.  

Interspecific competition is defined as the interaction in which the member of the same group competes for the resources. They compete for food, light, water, space, and reproduction that are necessary for the survival of the species.

The monoculture crop has the advantage of the local climate and soil conditions. The crops that are more suitable for the particular land are planted in order to prevent the impact of drought, wind and short growing season. Mono-culture help to maximize the productivity of the farm.  

Hence, the correct answer would be option
