Choose the correct answer from the options given below.

A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
A. The leopard and lion compete for similar prey and territory within the same ecosystem, leading to competition for
Resources.
B. The cuckoo lays its eggs in the nest of a crow, relying on the crow to incubate and raise its offspring. This is an
Example of brood parasitism.
