Answer:

B, they're of the same species :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Intraspecific competition is an interaction in population ecology, whereby members of the same species compete for limited resources. This leads to a reduction in fitness for both individuals, but the most fit individual survives and is able to reproduce.
