Predation is an interaction between individuals of 2 species in which one is harmed (the prey), and the other is helped (the predator). Predation can occur among plants and animals as well as between plants and animals. Some biologists contend that herbivores, or plant eaters, are predators. Table 1 indicates some characteristics and examples of certain predators. Based on Figure 1, during which year were the greatest number of prey animals available?
Correct answer: B. 2
- A. 1
- B. 2
- C. 3
- D. 4
Explanation
The correct answer is Option B: 2. The graph in Figure 1 shows the line representing the prey population reaching its highest point in the second year, indicating that this was the year with the greatest number of prey animals available. Option A is incorrect because the peak does not occur in the first year. Option C is incorrect because the prey population decreases from its peak by the third year. Option D is also incorrect as the population is lower in the fourth year compared to the peak in the second year.
