Use the graph to answer the question below. Analyze the graph and identify some factors that may contribute to the rotifer population leveling off in the absence of water fleas. Explain your answer in 1–2 sentences. (2 points)
One factor that may contribute to the rotifer population leveling off in the absence of water fleas is competition for resources. As the rotifer population increases, they may deplete the available food source, leading to a decrease in population growth. Additionally, predation by other organisms or environmental limitations could also contribute to the leveling off of the rotifer population.
