I think the answer would be B but none of them are great. Continental drift is the gradual movement of our land masses. Knowing this we can eliminate option D because it identifies buildings as a cause. A and C both discuss climate change which is not a product of continents moving. The elimination leaves option B however because these changes would occur gradually, it is unlikely that species would become invasive.
