Competition coefficients measure the effect of one species on another competing species.
coefficients is the power the number is raised to
Identify which mathematical operations are associated with coefficients?
The coefficients can be any numerical constants.
In the expression '15b + 23b + 10', the coefficients are 15, 23, and 10.If you simplify the expression to '38b + 10", then the coefficients are 38 and 10.
It can be any polynomial rule with integer coefficients in which there are an even number of odd coefficients.
measure them
competition and predation
Competition also can be modeled by examining resources rather than population growth equations.
The environment somehow must be limiting.
Predation,parasitism,mutualism,commensalism, and competition.
Ecological efficiency
weeds would be one example.
it is spatial or temporal characteristics of organisms that have changed because of competition.
Predation,parasitism,mutualism,commensalism, and competition.
biotic barriers to dispersal/establishment (ex. competition, pollination vectors)
Relate to the size of one species- population to the other species.
