A. The populations of predators and prey are limited by abiotic factors only.
B. Predation acts a density-dependent limiting factor on prey, but not on predators.
C. Predation acts as a density-independent limiting factor on predators, but not on prey.
D. Predator-prey relationships act as density-dependent limiting factors on both predators and prey.
