The answer is D as there are fluctuations which means that changes in the population of one affects the population of the other. as prey pop increases predator pop increases leading to a decease in prey pop which causes predator pop to decrease due to lack of food then prey increases and the cycle repeats
I believe the primary determinant of basal metabolic rate is the Lean Body Mass. Basal metabolic is the rate of energy expenditure per unit time by animals at rest. It comprises the processes that the body requires to function. It is the amount of energy per unit time that a person need to keep the body operational at a state of rest.
It is the basic unit of energy for all functions of the cell without ATP the ions wouldn't be able to transport across the cell membrane.
I hope this helps!
