True predation is when a predator kills and eats its prey. Some predators of this type, such as jaguars, kill large prey. They tear it apart and chew it before eating it. Others, like bottlenose dolphins or snakes, may eat their prey whole. In some cases, the prey dies in the mouth or the digestive system of the predator. Baleen whales, for example, eat millions of plankton at once. The prey is digested afterward. True predators may hunt actively for prey, or they may sit and wait for prey to get within striking distance. In grazing , the predator eats part of the prey but does not usually kill it. You may have seen cows grazing on grass. The grass they eat grows back, so there is no real effect on the population. In the ocean, kelp (a type of seaweed) can regrow after being eaten by fish.

What factor defines all groups in the Köppen system, with the exception of dry climates? evaporation precipitation air pressure

Liula [17]

Answer:

temperature

Explanation:

I choose temperature because it tells how hot,cold,dry and warm somethings are meanwhile evaporation is when water changes from liquid to gas,so that means water gets hot.

Precipitation is when water released from the cloud to form rain,freezing rain,sleet,snow,or hail.Which means thing get cold.

Air pressure also affect evaporation, which means that water will not be able to come up of the surface of a body of water.So that means the the pressure will be pushing down on the surface of the water.
