Capita growth rate decreases 2 of 11 In a population where the population size is higher than carrying capacity K: Numbers dying are higher than the number of births 3 of 11 When two species are competing, how large is the realized niche relative to the fundamental niche? The fundamental niche is larger than the realized niche 4 of 11 If the population of a species is facilitated by another species, how large is the realized niche relative to the fundamental niche?
