Abstract:

This paper describes the production adaptations in some types of food connectionsin the biocenose. The author concluds that the main factor limiting the quantity of saprophagous and predatory animals is the food abundance. The interspeciesand intraspecies food competition constitute the main elements which regulate thequantity of this animals in nature. The grazing of vascular plants by phytophagousanimals is based on other principles. Equilibrium between their quantity and plantproduction needs a complicate system of biocenotic regulation (for inst. c.f. Fig. 1).
