The predator-prey relationship involves predators reducing prey populations, leading to increased predator competition and reduced predator numbers; fewer predators mean less prey is eaten, allowing prey populations to increase, which in turn leads to an increase in predator populations.
Relația prădător-pradă implică faptul că prădătorii reduc populația prăzii, ceea ce duce la o competiție sporită între prădători, reducând populația acestora; mai puțini prădători reduc prădarea, permițând populației prăzii să crească, ceea ce duce la o creștere ulterioară a populației prădătorilor.
| Front | Describe the predator-prey relationship. |
|---|---|
| Back | 1. Predators eat there prey hence reduce the population of the prey 2. Less prey= more competition between predators for the prey that are left 3. predator population reduced as some individuals unable to obtain prey hence less likely to survive and reproduce. 4. Less predators= less prey eaten hence they are more likely to survive and reproduce 5. prey population increases 6. Predator population increases due to increases food available |
