In nature, animal populations are dynamic. This means they are changing due to various circumstances. The population of rabbits in certain areas of the world are affected by the population of foxes, for example. Using reasoning, which model shows the relationship between the two populations?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Think foxes eat rabbits. The more rabbits than the more foxes have to eat which will cause a decrease in rabbit population and likely an increase in fox population.

Explanation:

Rabbits and foxes have a predator-prey relationship. If a community has an abundant number of rabbits, then the population of foxes in that area will also increase as there will be abundant food for them. As the population of foxes increases, the population of rabbits will start to decrease as there will be more predators to feed on them. Hence, if the population of foxes keeps on increasing, rabbits may migrate or become completely eradicated from that particular area.
