The prey could easily be poisonous and kill the predator, cutting down population. Or the prey is over populated and the predator has more food causing them to be able to produce more population!
It would reduce the number in their habitat.
how can one organisms help control a population of another organism
Oftentimes, the predator holds the population of a particular prey in check. Without predators, the population of the prey will flourish. If the change of predators you refer to means 'type of predator', the prey will adapt -or vanish.
The predator eats the prey in the food chain. As the population is stable, the food chain won't wreck. There's an interdependence between the prey and the predator in the food chain. The prey should be there to feed some food to their predator, and the predator also needs to be there to control their prey population from exploding. Changes in animal population can wreck the food chain. If the prey population decreases, the predator population would also decrease as there'll be less food for them to eat. If the predator population decreases, the prey population would increase because less predators means less preys gets hunted down, so there'll be more preys. If the prey population increases, then the predator population would also increase because there'll be more food for them to eat and there should be more predators to take more control patrol of their prey population. If the predator population increases, then the prey population would decrease because more predators means more preys gets hunted down, so there'll be less preys. Animal Population Change Formula: Prey Decrease→Predator Decrease Predator Decrease→Prey Increase Prey Increase→Predator Increase Predator Increase→Prey Decrease

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.
By Removing prey the predators don't have enough food to eat so the predator population decreases.
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.
predators and prey do depend on each other in that the predators rely on prey for food and they keep population of prey in check which if they did not there would be over population and food for prey would be decreased and they could die from lack of food.
Oftentimes, the predator holds the population of a particular prey in check. Without predators, the population of the prey will flourish. If the change of predators you refer to means 'type of predator', the prey will adapt -or vanish.
Because when a predator feeds on prey, the prey population goes down. When the prey population goes down, then so does the predator population. When the prey population recovers, then the predators soon after prey on the prey, and it repeats.
If the top level consumers, the apex predators, are poisoned and their population decreases dramatically, then their prey animals have no population control. The prey then has a population boom. In turn, the prey animals decimate their food source, harmng the ecosystem as a whole.
True. A decrease in prey population can lead to a decrease in the predator population due to reduced food availability. The predator population relies on the prey as a food source, so a decline in prey numbers can impact the predator population size.
The connection between prey and predator is that predators are organisms that eat other organisms, and prey are the organisms that are eaten. For example, lion's are predators and zebra are an example of their prey. This can also refer to plants: rabbits are the predators and lettuce is the prey. Without prey, the predators would have nothing to eat. Without predators, the preyy population would increase to the point of overpopulation.
As the predator population goes up, the prey population goes down, and vice versa.
Predators are very important in the community because if they didn't catch their prey, then their prey would become overpopulated and there would not be enough producers( Grass, plants etc.) for the prey.

A large population of predators indicates a healthy ecosystem that supports a large population of prey animals.
