Abstract: A competitive resource-consumer dynamical model is analyzed based on an integrated model of a competetive Lotka$-$Volterra model and a prey$-$predator Rosenzweig$-$MacArthur model that we call it LV$-$RM model throughout this paper. Resource growth in the absence of consumers is logistic and competing consumers' type II Holling's functional response made the model structure more realistic. We used the normal form and the center manifold theorems for bifurcation analysis of the presented model, identified Hopf and zero$-$Hopf bifurcations and their directions, and discussed their biological interpretations. We hypothesized that differentiated time scales of the competing consumers' predatory that lead to asymetry in competition are the mechanisms that promote coexistence through relaxation-oscillation dynamics; though, other performance parameters of both competitors are exactly the same. Graphical representation of variations of the first Lyapunov coefficient, after competition coefficients interplay, shows various dynamics with growing complexity from the periodic state towards chaotic motion like R"ossler attractor. We presented simulations to visualize the theoretical results obtained through bifurcation analysis.
