Which increases as a population grows? available habitat food supply competition carrying capacity

Option C, Competition

Explanation:

The  resources with in any ecosystem are limited and hence they can allow only a certain population to sustain.

When the population grows , the competition for limited resource be it food, habitat, water , etc. increases among the species and in such scenarios the one which is the most fit species survive and rest all die.

The carrying capacity  is not at all affected by the increasing population. It is a fixed parameter with in a ecosystem and hence with increasing  population the carrying capacity of ecosystem is reached faster.

Hence, option C is correct

surface mining destroys mountain tops, landscapes, forests and wildlife habitats. on top of that, it leads to soil erosion and destruction of agricultural land. the landscape changes can also disrupt river channels and streams, which leads to flooding. which, can destroy plant life and other animals as well.

explanation:

when atoms of different types of elements join together, they make molecules called compounds. water consists of compound molecules made up of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom. this is why it's called h2o. water will always have 2 times the number of hydrogen atoms as oxygen atoms.
