Practice questions

In a grassland ecosystem, a model tracked a rabbit population with and without foxes (predators). Interactions between organisms can affect survival and reproduction. Use the evidence in the table to answer: Which explanation best links the predator-prey interaction to the survival and reproduction outcomes? Data (same rainfall and plant growth in both areas):
  • Area 1 (no foxes): Rabbits at start of spring = 40; rabbit kits born = 60; rabbits alive at end of summer = 85
  • Area 2 (foxes present): Rabbits at start of spring = 40; rabbit kits born = 58; rabbits alive at end of summer = 45
