Which of the following best explains the relationship between the different bumblebee species living in the same area? a. The bumblebees have undergone allopatric speciation due to geographic isolation.b. The bumblebees have undergone niche partitioning due to competition.c. The bumblebees have a mutualistic relationship with other bumblebee species due to natural selection.d. The bumblebees have a commensalistic relationship due to the variety of niches that are available.
