CAIE IGCSE Biology 19.2.10 Human Impacts on Food Chains & Webs

Practise using feeding links to explain how overharvesting or introducing a foreign species changes populations in a habitat.

Syllabus
2026–2028
Course
Biology 0610

Exam points

  • predict predator and prey population changes after a food species is overharvested
  • justify each change by tracing reduced predation or reduced food through the web
  • apply the same feeding-link reasoning to a foreign species introduced into a habitat
