The graph shows the population of alligators and insects in a pond ecosystem where cricket frogs live. A graph with the title Species Population is shown. The y axis title is Population and next to it is an arrow pointing upwards. The x axis title is Year and the values 1, 2, 3 4. 5 are marked on the x axis. A solid slanting graph line is shown sloping gently upwards. A straight broken graph line is shown. A key is shown at the bottom right of the graph.
