Question 5

Predators and Prey Features?

Answer 5

• If there’s Plenty of Food Available, the Prey Animals Grow and Reproduce Successfully, so Numbers Increase.

• The High Numbers of Predators Eat a Larger Proportion of the Prey Animals, so Prey Numbers Fall.
• With Fewer Prey Animals, there is Less Food for the Predators, so they’re Less Successful and Predator Numbers Fall.
• With the Reduction in Predators, and the Good Food Supply that Results From Fewer Animals, Prey Numbers Go Up Again and the Cycle Repeats.
