Hi there! :)

Answer:


\huge\boxed{C}

To simplify the process, convert each given weight into standard notation:

Lion:


1 * 10^(5) = 1 * 100000 = 100,000 g

Ant:


2 * 10^(-3) = 2* 0.001 = 0.002

Divide the ant's weight from the lion's weight:


100000 / 0.002 = 50,000,000

Convert to scientific notation: (use # of zeros to determine exponent)


50,000,000 = 5 * 10^(7)

Therefore, the correct answer is C.
