The balance of plants and animals within a food chain is determined by nature.For example，if there are too many zebras in a tropical habitat，many of them will die because they cannot get enough food to feed on.This also means that there is less food for predators，like lions，to eat.And when there are fewer lions the zebra population will grow again.
