Define the term hominin.
2 answers:
✭The Hominini, or hominins, form a taxonomic tribe of the subfamily Homininae ("hominines"). Hominini includes the extant genera Homo (humans) and Pan (Chimpanzees and Bonobos), but excludes the genus Gorilla (gorillas).
✭The term was originally introduced by John Edward Gray (1824), long before any details on the speciation of Pan and Homo were known. Gray's tribe Hominini by definition includes both Pan and Homo. This definition is still adhered to in the proposal by Mann and Weiss (1996), which divides Hominini into three subtribes, Panina (containing Pan), Hominina ("homininans", containing Homo "humans"), and Australopithecina (containing several extinct "australopithecine" genera).

I’m not sure if that’s the answer but what immediately pops up in my mind is the food chain. Primary consumers (herbivores) consume producers (plants). Secondary consumers consume primary consumers etc. At the end of the day, all kinds of animals die and decompose, providing nutrients for producers to grow, continuing the circle of life.
Lion is a top predator that hunts secondary consumers. Simba’s father died and contribute to the circle of life. I hope it gave you some pointers!
