Which consequence arises when a venomous snake repeatedly envenomates prey without sufficient recovery?

💡 Explanation

Depletion results because venom production rates are limited; repeated use exceeds replenishment via protein synthesis leading to weaker subsequent bites, rather than immediate paralysis or increased synthesis rates because it is a resource constraint.
