Intraspecific competition

roughly equals to the birth rate through the inflection point, a point that the growth rate is constant. At equilibrium, the steady state occurs that the birth rate and the death rate are equal. The growth of the Paramecium caudatum and Paramecium aurelia in separate media should fit the logistic population growth. The interspecific interactions, includes competition, predation, herbivory, symbiosis and facilitation, are interactions with individuals of other species in the community, a group of populations of different species living close enough to have associations (Campbell and Reece 2011). And the competition which occurs between two or more organisms in different species is the interspecific competition while the intraspecific competition defined as within the same species two or more organisms compete for limited resources. The intraspecific competition can exert negative influence on fitness for both individuals in that resources are limited if every organisms of the species tends to gain sufficient resources. As for the interspecific competition, organisms may compete for limiting resources causing exploitative competition. As a consequence, the competitive exclusion principle is brought which states that “when populations of two similar species compete for the same limited resources, one population will use the resources more efficiently and have a reproductive advantage that will eventually lead to the elimination of the other population” (Campbell and Reece…
