Detailed explanation-1: -Gause’s principle of competitive exclusion states that two species competing for the same limiting resource cannot coexist in the same niche indefinitely.

Detailed explanation-2: -The competitive exclusion principle says that two species can’t coexist if they occupy exactly the same niche (competing for identical resources). Two species whose niches overlap may evolve by natural selection to have more distinct niches, resulting in resource partitioning.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Principle of Competitive Exclusion, first articulated by Gause in 1934, states that two species or populations cannot inhabit the same niche: one will consistently out-compete the other.

Detailed explanation-4: -The competitive exclusion principle states that two species cannot occupy the same niche in a habitat. In other words, different species cannot coexist in a community if they are competing for all the same resources.

Detailed explanation-5: -Competitive exclusion may be avoided if a population evolves to make use of a different resource, a different area of the habitat, or feeds during a different time of day. This is called resource partitioning. The two species are then said to occupy different microniches.
