(c) Based on the data in Figure 1, describe whether or how the size of the leopard population appears to have been affected by t
he lion population over the period for which data were analyzed. The scientists also estimated the consumed biomass of the prey animals of the leopards and lions. They estimated that the lions annually ate a total of approximately 175,000 kg of prey animals. This included approximately 110,000 kg of very large animals. Calculate, to the nearest whole number, the percent of the total biomass eaten by the lions that is composed of very large animals.
Digestive enzymes and bicarbonate are produced in the pancreas. The bicarbonate helps to neutralize acids in the chyme traveling from the stomach into the small intestine. The raising of the pH also provides the ideal environment for the digestive enzymes to do their work.
