In predation, one organism kills and consumes another. Predation provides energy to prolong the life and promote the reproduction of the organism that does the killing, the predator, to the detriment of the organism being consumed, the prey. Predation influences organisms at two ecological levels.

Predation is an interaction in which one organism, the predator, eats all or part of the body of another organism, the prey. Herbivory is a form of predation in which the prey organism is a plant. Predator and prey populations affect each other's dynamics.

  • Predation refers to an interaction between two organisms, predator and prey, where there is a flow of energy from one to another. The prey usually suffers a loss of energy and fitness, with a commensurate gain in energy for the predator.
  • Predation includes carnivory, as well as interactions like grazing, parasitism and symbiotic mutualism. The process of eating seeds and eggs is also considered a form of predation.
  • Biological control methods adopted in agricultural pest control are based on the ability of the predator to regulate prey population. For plants, herbivores are the predators.
