Answer:

the statement that would best describe the term carrying capacity relating to prairie dog population would be "the maximum prairie dog population size, that a particular area can sustain over time".

It is the maximum capacity that a particular area can sustain in the presence of certain amount of fixed resources like food and habitat.
