PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!

The following graph shows the relationship between predator and prey populations. If the time is measured in months, how long does the predator rise in population follow the prey rise in population?

a. About six months
b. About two months
c. About one month
d. About eight months

Answer 1

c. About one month To answer this question, TAKE A LOOK AT THE GRAPH. If you do so, you'll see that the first peak for prey happens at about 2.5 months. The first peak for predators happens at about 3.5 months, or in other words, lags by about a month. Looking at the second peak for prey and predator you see the figures of 8 months and 9 months. Another lag of about 1 month. Looking at the third peak, you see a bit past 13 months and a bit past 14 months. Another one month lag. Therefore the answer is "c. About one month"
