Predator prey relationship

Question 1

what is the predator- prey reationship?

Answer 1

• it is a cyclic oscillation
• the predator curve lagging behind that of the prey
• As the prey population declines, there is increased competition between predators and eventually the predators number begin to fall
• As the predator population declines the prey population builds up again followed by another increase in the predator population

Question 2

First bullet point:

Answer 2

it is a cyclic oscillation

Question 3

second bullet point:

Answer 3

the predator curve lagging behind that of the prey

Question 4

what happens as the prey population declines?

Answer 4

As the prey population declines, there is increased competition between predators and eventually the predators number begin to fall

Question 5

what happens as the predator population declines?

Answer 5

As the predator population declines the prey population builds up again followed by another increase in the predator population

Question 6

simple answer

Answer 6

An increas in the population density of prey results in an increase in the predator population
