Question

An example of the predator/prey dynamic is the rise and fall of the population of Canadian lynx and its favorite prey the snowshoe hare. The two populations were estimated each year for 75 years from the number of animals caught by fur traders. The hare population was found to rise and fall in a ten-year cycle, with that of the lynx following two years later. How does this predator/prey relationship affect the health of a population?

Answer 1

Answer:

A predator pray is a relationship between two species in which one harms other.

Predator are dependent on prey.

As Canadian lynx eats snowshoe hare and hare population was found to rise and fall in a ten-year cycle, with that of the lynx following two years later.

Explanation:

• This can be explained in this way, if the food of a specie decrease, after some time that specie will also decrease and if the food of a specie increase after some times, their population will also increases.
• As the hare decreases, the food for hare will be less in first year they will consume normally eating remaining hare but next year they will start competition each other for food. And their population will decrease due to lack of food and competition.

And when hare increases the number lynx start increasing due to favorable eating condition.
