The correct Answer is:
To solve the question about the relationship between two species that compete with each other even in the presence of a large quantity of food, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Nature of the Relationship**: The question specifies that two species are competing with each other. This indicates that there is some form of interaction between them. 2. **Consider the Availability of Resources**: The problem states that there is a large quantity of food available. This is crucial because it suggests that the competition is not due to a scarcity of resources. 3. **Analyze the Options**: - **Mutualism**: This is a relationship where both species benefit from the interaction. However, mutualism typically does not involve competition. - **Antagonism**: This involves one species benefiting at the expense of another, which does not fit the scenario of competition with abundant resources. - **Isolation**: This term refers to species being separated and not interacting, which does not apply here. - **Commensalism**: In this relationship, one species benefits while the other is neither helped nor harmed. This does not describe competition. 4. **Conclusion**: Since the question describes a situation where two species are competing despite the availability of resources, it suggests that they are vying for dominance or territory rather than food itself. Therefore, the most appropriate term for this relationship is **competition**, which is not listed in the options. However, based on the context, the best fit would be **antagonism**, as it reflects a competitive relationship. ### Final Answer: The relationship is best described as **antagonism**.

Two insect species were used in a laboratory experiment. For one treatment, both species were grown by themselves (in separate chambers) on a suitable food source. For the second treatment, the two species were grown together (in the same chamber) on the same type and amount of food as in the first treatment. The given figure showns the results (the number of individuals of each species in the two treatments) at the end of the experiment. Based on these results the two species should be classified as
