Correct answer: A). Carrying capacity

The carrying capacity of an environment is the maximum population size of the species an environment can be able to sustain indefinitely, There would be no lack of food, water, habitat and other necessities in the environment.

It is necessary that the environment supports the given species with the natural resource limits, it should degrade the natural, social and the cultural environment. No population can live beyond the environment's carrying capacity.
