Over various spans of time, human populations have increased, decreased, or remained the same, and at both global and local levels. Which
statement best explains this observation?
A
Unlike other populations, the human population changes size because of specific choices of its members.
B. Unlike other populations, the human population has the ability to grow rapidly without limit
C
Like other populations, the human population is affected by a variety of factors in the environment
D. Like other populations, the human population increases and decreases in a cyclical pattern.

The correct option is C) Like other populations, the human population is affected by a variety of factors in the environment.

Explanation:

According to the theory of natural selection, those organisms which are better able to live and survive in an environment are able to live and reproduce. The same case goes in the scenario of humans.

Certain environmental factors make the Earth favorable enough for humans to multiply rapidly. Other factors such as a disease or infection outbreak may result in unfavorable conditions for the humans. As a result, the population of humans will decline.
