"Prey".
Ecology refers to an organism's communities, populations, and ecosystems as a whole.
No, ventral and posterior are not synonymous terms. Ventral refers to the front or abdominal side of an organism, while posterior refers to the back or tail end.
The chain of eating and being eaten refers to the food chain, where organisms are interconnected based on who eats whom. It illustrates the flow of energy and nutrients through an ecosystem, showing the relationships between different species in terms of predator-prey interactions. Ultimately, it highlights the balance and interdependence of all living things in nature.
morphology. The developmental form, shape, and expression of genetics in terms of organization and growth.
An apex predator, also known as an alpha predator or top predator, is a predator at the top of a food chain, without natural predators. Apex predators are usually defined in terms of trophic dynamics, meaning that they occupy the highest trophic levels. Food chains are often far shorter on land, usually limited to being secondary consumers – for example, wolves prey mostly upon large herbivores (primary consumers), which eat plants (primary producers). The apex predator concept is applied in wildlife management, conservation and ecotourism.
They are neither, They do not eat meat. A predator goes for the prey and the scavenger eats the leftovers but both terms refers to meat-eaters.
Predation: Predatory behavior, Predatory: any organism that exists by preying on others, Prey: an animal hunted and seized for food. Example: A predator could be the a snake. The prey would be a rat.

A prey is what a predator hunts down to kill and eat. A prey's predator is what eats it. For example: A gazelle is the prey of a leopard (predator).

Genotype refers to an organism's genetic makeup, specifically its genes and alleles. Phenotype, on the other hand, refers to the observable physical characteristics of an organism, which are determined by its genotype and environmental factors. In simpler terms, genotype is the genetic code while phenotype is the physical expression of that genetic code.
No, anterior and posterior are not the same. Anterior refers to the front or forward-facing side of an organism, while posterior refers to the back or rear-facing side. They are opposite directions in terms of anatomical position.
In scientific terms, something that is eaten can be said to have been ingested.
Dorsal anatomy refers to the back side of an organism, while ventral anatomy refers to the belly side. These terms are commonly used to describe the positioning of structures in relation to the body's axis.
