Acts as a conduit for energy transfer across trophic levels

Vedclass · Answer

(C) Predators play a crucial role in ecosystems. They act as conduits for energy transfer across trophic levels,moving energy from the prey population to the predator population. Predators also maintain species diversity by reducing the intensity of competition among competing prey species. They do not overexploit their prey because that would lead to their own extinction. The interaction between a predator and its prey is a $(+, -)$ interaction,not $(+, +)$.
