Do you think a population besides the moon jellies’ consumer population (sea turtles) and resource population (zooplankton) could have caused the moon jelly population to increase in size?

Answer: Yes because the Orca will start to eat the moon jellies

Explanation: When the Sea Turtles start to get very low on population the Moon jellies are next in line also the sea turtles eat the moon jellies and since they eat the moon jellies the sea turtle has a bit of that taste in them so they will taste alike to the sea turtles.

Answer:

I didn't quite understand your question, but the moon jelly population will increase if there are either more zooplankton or less sea turtles.

More zooplankton means more food => higher population

Less sea turtles means that the moon jelly will be lest often consumed => higher population
