Question
Michael Rosenzweig described how models of this behavior tend to destabilize after an increase in resource availability in the paradox of enrichment. It’s not competition, but the differential Lotka-Volterra equations can predict oscillations in this behavior. One model of this behavior incorporates variables like search time and handling time, resulting in a type II functional response. In many ecosystems, organisms performing this behavior are responsible for top-down trophic cascades. Organisms defend against this behavior via Batesian and Müllerian mimicry. For 10 points, name this behavior in which organisms catch, kill, and eat prey. ■END■
ANSWER: predation [accept word forms such as predators; accept predator-prey interactions; prompt on hunting or foraging or eating; do NOT accept prey]
