In the competitive exclusion principle, two species compete for limited resources untilMultiple choice question.one species is displaced or dies out.mutation is induced to occur to bring about a change in one of the species.a symbiosis evolves between the two species.a climax community is formed.

Statements I. Recent studies support competition as suggested in ‘Gauses’s Competitive Exclusion Principle’ II. Gause’s hypothesis says if two species compete for same resources then one will be eliminated by another species III. More recent studies point out that species facing competition might evolve mechanisms that promote co-existence rather than exclusion IV. Gause’s competitive exclusion principle is effective when resources are in excess V. Unlimited resources give better opportunity for adaptation Choose the correct combination of statements
