Question
The term “functional groups” is often considered synonymous with the term for these groups, though some scholars distinguish these groups via a focus on resource sharing. For 10 points each:
[10h] Name these groups of non-phylogenetic species that exploit a shared pool of environmental resources similarly to each other.
ANSWER: guilds
[10m] The intraguild type of this interaction is a common topic of ecological study due to its far-reaching ecosystem effects. This interaction is modeled in the Lotka–Volterra equation that is [emphasize] not about competitive exclusion.
ANSWER: predation [accept intraguild predation; accept predator-prey interaction]
[10e] When these animals were reintroduced to Yellowstone, they began intraguild predation of coyotes. An ongoing study on Isle Royale examines the predator-prey interaction between moose and these animals.
