The answer is a, the rest would help them

Answer 2

the answer would be A) increased competition for resources. with the competition of resources from overpopulation or lack of resources, it will cause some of the population to starve and die off, and will decrease the population until the environment is balanced. the other 3 options would cause increases in population rather than decrease.
