Carnivores competing for resources may defend their territory. If a species cannot compete very well it could become extinct or move out of the territory. Another thing that could happen is that the competing species could consume all the resources and it could affect the whole food web and ecosystem. It could affect the other species in the ecosystem.

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

All living things need to compete to survive so that they can pass their genes onto the next generation, so yes the carnivores do defend their territory if there is a threat or a lack of resources.

It could also impact other species and the ecosystem since each one is connected. If the competing species consume all the resources then that species is in danger of extinction which in turn affects another species that feed on the first species.

So the answer is true.

I hope this helps.
