Question

which of the following is an example of how a biotic factor can affect the population dynamics in an ecosystem? the population of a predator increases following an increase in the population of its prey. excessive rain and flooding cause organisms in an area to relocate. seasonal temperature changes cause a species to migrate between two ecosystems. lack of water during a drought causes many of the individuals in a population to die.

Explanation:

Biotic factors are living components in an ecosystem. A predator - prey relationship involves living organisms. The increase in predator population due to an increase in prey population is an example of a biotic - factor interaction affecting population dynamics. Excessive rain, seasonal temperature changes, and lack of water during drought are abiotic factors.

Answer:

The population of a predator increases following an increase in the population of its prey.
