Answer:

The correct option is A) the carrying capacity of a population

Step-by-step explanation:

Spatial distribution can be described as how spread out a particular population is. Spatial distribution has three types: uniform distribution, clumped distribution or random distribution. When organisms of a population follow a pattern and are uniformly spread in an ecosystem, it is referred as uniform distribution. When organism of a species exist in specific parts of an ecosystem then they form clumped distribution. In random distribution, organisms of a population exist without any pattern.
