Consider the following scenario, you are a scientist observing rodents on an island. Do you notice that the introduction of a Newport of prey has limited number of rodents what term best describes the factor that is limiting the number of rodents the environment can support.
The term that best describes the factor limiting the number of rodents the environment can support in this scenario is "predator." The introduction of a predator (Newport of prey) is causing a decrease in the rodent population by preying on them and limiting their numbers. This is an example of a predator-prey relationship, where the predator (Newport of prey) is a limiting factor for the prey population (rodents).
