Which of the following best describes resource partitioning?
a) competitive exclusion that results in the success of the superior species
b) slight variations in niche that allow similar species to coexist
c) two species that can coevolve to share identical niches
d) differential resource utilization that results in a decrease in community species diversity
e) a climax community that is reached when no new niches are available

B) slight variations in niche that allow similar species to coexist

Explanation:

The purpose of resource partitioning is to control the limited resources that exist around us in order to avoid too much competition.

We can observe this in human society. If ALL humans consume the exact same type of food, that food would most be over exploited to the point where the environment no longer able to accommodate the humans who live in it. Because of this, we me make slight variations in the food that we consume so all people can coexist without stealing each others' foods.
