48. The intensity of competition can be inferred from knowing the carrying capacity (K) and the population size (N) in the equation below: Assume that populations have the same intrinsic growth rates(r) and carrying capacities (K). Then, at which one of the following values of the second term (K-N)/K in the equation, is the intraspecific competition likely to be the highest? (1) 0.001 (2) 0.009 (3) 0.15 (4) 0.015
