So now lets talk about the Lotka Volterra model incorporated and simulated through Vensim

Software.
So basically this is a more simple way of analysing the Predator-Prey Model through series of
graphs and illustrations
First up you can see here, the correlation of the Prey in which we assumed as a Rabbits and the
Predator which is the Fox
Where in if look at the function of prey, it is only the difference of its growth rate and its death
rate. Sames through with the predator, it is only the difference of its growth and its death rate

The arrows here indicate how each variable or value is affected by the other, for example death
rate of prey is affected by the predator, in a sense that if konti lng yung makakain na rabbits by
the fox, we can expect that the value of death rate of the rabbit is lower.

On other hand, the predator population growth rate would somehow also depend on the
number of sheep it can consume.
The delta constant represents the attack rate of predator and its conversion of the energy it
consumes.
As explained previously by miss kayla and mr. syo, we can predict the behavior of these two
species living on an ecological neesh through this formula given the initial assumptions at a
certain period of time

SIMULATE
We can see here at the bottom left corner the initial number of fox and rabbit A PERIODICAL
DYNAMICS OF INCREASE AND DECREASE OF ITS POPULATION IN RELATION TO THEIR OWN
INTERACTIONS
While on this side is the phase portrait of the correlation of the rabbit nd the foxes population.
So we can further visualize these, we made a simulation through netlogo.

That is how the LT PP Model is explained through graphs


This is the ideal assumption for a perfect ecological neesh since alam naman natin na in real life hindi
infinite ang resources natin. There are many factor that affects both the mortality rate and birth rate of
every specie.

That is why we opted to also include in our presentation A slightly more complicated and realistic
version of the Lotka-Volterra predator-prey model which assumes that prey do not grow indefinitely in
the absence of predators, but will ultimately reach a maximum prey abundance. Hence, prey do not
grow exponentially, but follow, a logistic growth equation

AND WE CALL THIS THE PREY LOGISTIC GROWTH

POWERPOINT

The only difference of this set of equations with the standard model (6.1) is the term (1 −F/K),
characterizing the logistic growth process of prey up to a carrying capacity K

K- carrying capacity is the average population size in a particular habitat to further understand this let us
look into the vensim model of this assumption
