What is the most likely explanation for why the size of the coyote population did not change during the 2006
2008 period?
Choose
1
A. There was an extreme decrease in the population's food source.
B. the population reached carrying capacity of the environment .
C. the population experienced high predation.
D. a new parasite affected the population.

B

Explanation:

The most likely explanation for why the size of the coyote population remained unchanged between 2006 and 2008 would be that the population reached its carrying capacity of the environment.

The carrying capacity of a population of an organism  is the maximum number of the organism the environment can support based on the resources the environment has. Below this number, the population of the organism has the potential to increase while above the carrying capacity, the population has the tendency to decrease. The population of an organism fluctuates around the carrying capacity without any major decrease or increase.

The correct option is B.
