Answer:

c) a school (group) of fish

Step-by-step explanation:

A population is a distinct group of individuals. A wolf eating a squirrel is just part of the food chain, a hibernating bear is alone, so it couldn't count as a population, and a boy playing with his pet dog, that's just a duo, and they aren't the same species.
