Question

identify the interaction used to describe each type of interdependence among organisms. having too many fish in a pond can limit the amount of food and space available. the cheetah population depends on the gazelle population for food. predation competition

Explanation:

For "Having too many fish in a pond can limit the amount of food and space available."

Competition occurs when organisms compete for limited resources like food and space. Too many fish in a pond competing for the same food and space fits this. Predation is one organism eating another, which doesn't apply here. So the interaction is competition.

Predation is a relationship where one organism (predator, cheetah) hunts and eats another (prey, gazelle) for food. This matches the cheetah - gazelle food relationship. Competition is for shared resources, not applicable here. So the interaction is predation.

Answer:

competition

For "The cheetah population depends on the gazelle population for food."
