Q. No.Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A):
Mammals with smaller body size find thermoregulation more challenging than those with larger body size.
Reason (R):
Mammals with smaller body size are ectotherms and mammals with larger body size are endotherms.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
1.
Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2.
Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3.
(A) is true but (R) is false.
4.
Both (A) and (R) are false.

‘Realized niche’ of an organism can be best described as:
| 1. | the area a species can occupy in the face of exploitive competition |
| 2. | the habitat of a species within a community resulting from clumping |
| 3. | the habitat that exists in nature as opposed to the ideal |
| 4. | the life pattern that the organism actually assumes |
The competitive exclusion principle can be best expressed as:
| 1. | the more abundant species will exclude the less abundant species through competition |
| 2. | competition for the same resources excludes species having different lifestyles |
| 3. | no two species can occupy the same niche indefinitely when resources are limited |
| 4. | larger organisms exclude smaller ones through competition as in the case of large trees controlling underbrush |
