Final answer:

Interspecific competition explains how species evolve different adaptations to coexist and avoid extinction due to resource competition.


Explanation:

Interspecific competition is the type of competition described in the question. It is a relationship between two species that depend on the same limiting resources in their ecosystem. Over time, this interaction can lead to greater species specialization as competing species evolve different adaptations to coexist without directly competing and potentially avoid extinction.
