Answer 1

Intraspecific competition is competition among individuals of a population.

Explanation:

Intraspecific competition involves rivalry among members of a particular species for resources such as food, space, or mates. This type of competition differs from interspecific competition, which occurs between members of different species. The competition occurs because individuals of the same species have overlapping niches and require the same limited resources. Intraspecific competition is usually more intense than interspecific competition because the competing individuals have identical needs.
