Answer: c. the patented manufacturing process that Biopure uses to produce Hemopure and Oxyglobin

Step-by-step explanation:

The internal environment of a company refers to those actions and activities that have to do with the way the company is running from within the country such as corporate culture and management.

In patenting, the Patent that was received will be company propriety and as no one outside the company can access it, it is part of the internal environment that works to ensure that that the company is ran smoothly.
