Answer:

the Answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

If resources are being used faster than they are being replenished, then the species has exceeded its carrying capacity. If this occurs, the population will then decrease in size. Every stable population has one or more factors that limit its growth. A limiting factor determines the carrying capacity for a species.

hope this helps have a good day :)
