Predator/Prey
• A predator is an organism the eats another organism. Prey is the organism which the predator eats.
• Predation and prey effects the population by determining whether a certain population is big or small. – If the level of predation is small, there is a chance of
over population. – If there is to many predators then there is a chance
that an entire population can be killed out.
