A micrоbiаl ecоlоgist found two new microorgаnisms аnd wanted to test how they interact with one another. Because they are (until now) undiscovered species, she calls them Microbe A and Microbe B. The researcher performed an experiment. She grew the two microbes in growth chambers with a constant source of one resource, glucose. The researcher grew the microbes alone in separate growth chambers (Fig. A and B) and together in the same growth chamber (Fig. C). She measured their population sizes each day for 10 days. Answer the following questions about this experiment. 1) What kind of ecological interaction do Microbe A and Microbe B engage in? [interaction] 2) Based on the data above, Microbe A's realized niche is [A] its fundamental niche. 3) Based on the data above, Microbe B's realized niche is [B] its fundamental niche.
