Comp Factor Interspecific Species Resource Pops Types Outcompeting/Cep

- comp is biotic limiting factor, comp is where multiple organisms require same resource, interspecific (comp within diff species), intraspecific (comp within same species), with interspecific, it reduces resource available for both pops (if food source dec, less energy for both pops to grow/repro, so dec pop sizes)

- if 2 species compete for same resource but 1 better adapted, leads to outcompeting, competitive exclusion principle (less-adapted species declines in numbers until it can no longer exist in same habitat as other species)
