Detailed Solution

In some shallow South American lakes, visiting flamingos and resident fishes compete for their common food, the zooplankton in the lake. This is an example of competition between two species. There is no competition between the female mosquito and the human host. A bird laying its eggs in the nest of another bird for incubation is an example of brood parasitism. Lions and hyenas are closely related species competing for the same prey.
