The number of predators also fall, because when their preys die, they will have a decrease in the amount of their food, thus making most of them hungry, and will lead to death. So it will just be like saying what will happen to people when the number of cows, pigs, and chickens will decrease. Of course! Many people would die beacause of hunger and the number of people (who are the predators) will also decrease. Hope you understood it! Good Luck!
What else can I help you with?
What happens to the number of prey as the number of predator decreases?
The numbers of prey will normally increase.
How do predators help the kind of animals that they feed on?
They help their prey by decreasing their numbers if the prey are many their is less food but if the predators fed on the preys the number decreases and the remaining preys find chance to feed on the food available.
How does a change in the prey population effect the predator population?
A change in the prey population effects the predator population because if there are alot of preys, then the predators would eat the preys and the population of predators would increase. But on the other hand, if there are not enough preys, the predators would starve and die which would decrease the population of predators.
What happens to predator population when the prey population is eliminated?
The predator population also goes down because there is less for it to eat. This is called the food chain.
What effect did removing the prey have on predators?
addddfddffdfffffffrrrrrrrdddddddffffffffvffffffffffff
What happens to the predator population when the prey populations decreases?
The predator population may also decrease due to a decrease in available food source, leading to increased competition among predators. This could result in some predators migrating to find new prey or population decline due to lack of resources. Ultimately, the predator population may be negatively impacted by a decrease in the prey population.
Why do predators kill and not eat all their prey?
When the number of preys decreases, the predators can't get enough food and their population is decreasing too. During long periods of time the populations are balanced so that predators can be fed and preys don't go extinct.
True or false If a prey population decreases the population of its predator probably will decrease as well?
True, if the number of prey decreases, the predators will have nothing left to eat and will slowly starve. In some cases the predators will become cannibalistic (eat its own species) to prevent it self from starving to death.So the answer is true, if a prey population decreases the population of its prey will decrease as well.
Does the number of prey in an area determine the number of predators?
Yes.
Why the number of prey does not drop to zero?
Because - eventually, the gradual reduction in the number of prey animals would result in fewer predators. Less predators gives the prey animals time to recover their numbers. Therefore there will always be at least some prey for predators to feed on.
How does the number of prey effect the number of predators?
Predators EAT their prey. If the number of prey diminishes there is less food available for the predators to catch so some of them starve to death. Similarly if there are numerous prey then the predators eat well and breed successfully and their numbers go up. There is therefore a balance between the numbers of predators and their prey.
What relationship occurs between prey and another organism?
predator kills and eats prey for its survival. When the predator population increases, the prey population decreases because of too many hunters. When the prey population decreases, the predator population decreases because of the lack of food. Then, the prey population increases because there aren't that many predators and the process repeats itself.
