Document Summary
Standard prediction of foraging theory: maximize energy intake. Factors to consider: abundance, quality, catchability of prey types. Prediction: animals preferentially help their kin because doing so increases the reproduction of alleles they both carry ( inclusive fitness ) Possibilities: increasing numbers of seals, allee effects (benefits of abundance), changes in life history traits. Population cycles: prey & predator relationship: community ecology: interactions between species in relation to the environment predation or parasitism: one participant is harmed, the other benefits competition: two species using the same resource.
