Answer:
Why do the population of prey and predators fluctuate differently meaning their respective population rise and fall at different points.
In biology, fluctuation of prey and predators could be attributed to so many factors which are listed below;
Migration of either the prey or predator would allow fluctuation to occur, when prey which is meant to be fed on reduces in number then this leads to competition among predators, hence; overcrowding and then leads to feeding on each other as result of scarcity of prey.
overpopulation of predator could also fluctuate the population of both in such a way one regulate another. When predators are overpopulated, the feeding pattern would be voracious on the prey which might lead to drought or scarcity of prey , hence; causes fluctuation in prey population
