Explanation:

Organisms in an ecosystem tend to interact with one another. One of those interactions is termed COMPETITION, which is an interaction between two organisms whereby one or both of the organisms is harmed. Competition is triggered by the limited supply of one or more resource in an ecosystem. Competition can be between same species called INTRASPECIFIC or between different organisms called INTERSPECIFIC.

According to the question, several lions fighting over a recent animal kill depicts organisms in a population involved in a competition for energy (food source). Energy is obtained via food consumption, hence, the limited resource in the example must be food. The example is an example of INTRASPECIFIC competition because it involves organisms of same species (lions).
