b) a hawk swooping down quickly to capture, kill, and eat a prairie king snake

Explanation:

Predation is a form of biological interaction between organisms in which one organism called predator kills and eats another organism called prey. Often, organisms that are predators are adapted and specialized for hunting. So, their senses (vision, hearing, or smell) are very well developed and adapted for that kind of behavior.
