There's quite a few ways to answer this question. Let me give you two:
Predators are an important selective force. They are in a constant evolutionary 'arms race' with their prey. Research the 'Red Queen Hypothesis' for more info about this. This is supposed to be one of the major selective forces in evolution.
Predators and their prey are ecologically dependent on one another. Predators may regulate the population of their prey, allowing the environment to be able to successfully sustain them. Likewise, without enough prey, predators will tend to decline in population, which results in a quite complex predator-prey cycle. I suggest you research predator-prey ecology if you want more details.

How do scientists use comparative anatomy to study evolution?
Comparative anatomy is the investigation and comparison of the structures of different animals. Scientists use comparative anatomy to study the difference between species and how they are alike in other ways. By comparing the similarities and differences between a number of species, scientists can then construct a picture of their evolutionary relationships.
What is a more complete model of feeding relationships?

What is the study of the interactions of living organisms with one another and their physical environment?
"the study of living things is called what" - The Asker The Answer-er: Biology. Their environment, and how they interact: Ecology. You asked two very different questions in the title and in the answer. There are many shades of study around and in between these two categories, depending on the focal point of study.

Why is it important to study macroeconomics?
It is important to study macroeconomic fluctuations because if you did not, you'd be marketing blindly and you need to understand the relationships between certain aspects of buisiness, especially production cost, supply and demand, and price.
