- - - - impossible to count all microbiology
  - - - Oldest: Tropical Regions have benign environments
      - Almost no Ice-free land far south
        
        Antartica: Largest landmass but covered ice
- - - - Lotka-Volterra model modified #
      - without predation all species may live everywhere
      - The relationships are not free
        
        losing pollen/nectar
        
        pollinators work flowers
        
        Natural selection facors org.s that reduce cost
- - - - Leads to Carrying capacity of Predators
    - - Prey-Dependent: functional response depends prey density
    - - dN/dt:rate change prey population
      - N: individual prey in community
      - a: attack rate, P: # predators present
  - - - Rare species=consumed less
      - Poisonous or Spiny?
      - Difficult fruit to crack open or digest?
    - - predator prefers most energy w/ least handling time
      - If high yield prey becomes scarce, predator successful by broadening its diet
