an ecosystem can only support a certain amount of animals at one time because; 1.some animals may be going to go extinct. 2. if animals eat all the food there wont be any other food left for any other animals to eat and those animals may die. 3. some organisms may be consumers and eat/ hurt the other animals in the ecosystem/ area around them.
What is the limited number of predators in an ecosystem
The number and kinds of predators in the ecosystem.
An ecosystem is maintained and survives by remaining in balance. A balance of predators and prey, a balance of resources and users who use those resources, and a balance of animal and plant populations.
An increase in the number of herbivores.
An ecosystem is maintained by keeping a balance, such as a balance between the number of resources and the number of the users. Or the balance between predators and prey. Also, it helps by humans not destroying the habitat.
The predators keep prey populations balanced.
They are not limited by natural predators
The number and kinds of predators in the ecosystem.
No. The number of a species supported by and ecosystem depends on how much food is available in the ecosystem. If the population (squirrels) exceeds the food supply then some of the population will die. Predators are a factor in controlling population size.
The predators and prey.
The number of links in a food chain is ultimately limited by the amount of energy in the producers of the particular ecosystem.
The Lost of potential energy.
An ecosystem is maintained and survives by remaining in balance. A balance of predators and prey, a balance of resources and users who use those resources, and a balance of animal and plant populations.
An increase in the number of herbivores.
The giant panda, as an adult, is the largest mammal in its ecosystem and has no predators.
Tigers
Owls are typically the top predators in an ecosystem, eating mice, etc. Predators are needed to regulate the other populations and keep the ecosystem at equilibrium.
An ecosystem is maintained by keeping a balance between the number of resources and the number of the users. Also, it is maintained by the balance between predators and prey.
