Resource partitioning occurs between allopatric species.
Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)
False
Allopatric species occur in different geographic areas, while sympatric species occur in the same geographic area. Resource partitioning describes the differentiation of niches that enables similar species to coexist in a community. Therefore, resource partitioning occurs between sympatric species, not allopatric species.
