Which would you expect to have the greatest biomass a population of rabbits or a population of foxes living the same ecosystem?
A population of rabbits would likely have the greatest biomass compared to a population of foxes in the same ecosystem. Typically, herbivores like rabbits have higher biomass as they can efficiently convert plant matter into their own body tissues, while carnivores like foxes would have lower biomass as they need to expend energy to chase, catch, and digest their prey.
What will help balance an ecosystem with a lot of rabbits?
Predators of rabbits, to keep the ecosystem in balance. For example, foxes and snakes

What is a vital part of keeping an ecosystem stable?
