Overpopulation most greatly impacts the STANDARD OF LIVING.

The answer to the question is actually contained within the word "overpopulation" itself. Overpopulation, as Biology Dictionary explains, "refers to a population which exceeds its sustainable size within a particular environment or habitat." In other words, within a particular region or society, overpopulation means that there won't be enough resources available within that region to supply everyone's needs adequately. So the standard of living inevitably will go down, and a greater number of people fall into poverty conditions.

I think the correct answer from the choices listed is the second option. Overpopulation tend to impact standard of living the most. It is an undesirable condition where the number of existing human population exceeds the carrying capacity of Earth. If this happens, the resources would be scarce and that would affect standard of living. Hope this answers the question.
