Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sigmoidal relationship between prey density and per capita predation rate in a type III functional response is shaped by the following factors: prey access to refuge, predator preference, and recognition of prey by the predator. However, predator density does not play a significant role in shaping this relationship as it is assumed to be constant throughout the study period.
