Answer:Two similar species co-exist and one is better adapted for survival.

Explanation: Naturally, Two different species occupying the same niche, compete for similar resources for survival. This explains the competitive exclusions principle which states that 'that two species can't have exactly the same niche in a habitat and stably coexist'. That's because species with identical niches also have identical needs, which means they would compete for precisely the same resources.
