Question

Animals who eat the same food are categorized in the same niche.
True or False?

Answer 1

Two different species of animals would not be able to be a part of the same niche.

The question asks us about food.

Food is a resource.

And if two different species of animals compete with one another for the same resource,
then eventually, one species will out-do the other.

Sorry, I came back here and realized that I misread the question.

The question didn't mention anything about different animals occupying in the same niche.

I still think it would be False, though.

A "niche" is an organism's role, in the ecosystem.

It's about much more than just the kind of food that it eats.

An organism's "niche" is every way that it affects the environment.

For example, part of a beaver's niche would be that it builds dams.
