This is a picture of a spider web. A spider web is a form of predation. Predation is when an organism preys on a weaker organism than itself for food and energy. This web allows spiders to catch insects that fly into it. The insects cannot fly off the web because it is sticky and traps them there. The spider now has food to give it the energy it needs. This is an example of predation because the insects the spider catches are feeble minded compared to the spider. The spider is killing other organisms in order to get the energy he requires.
