The answer is; E

With environmental changes, the carrying capacity can either increase or decrease. It is important to note that the carrying capacity is the number of individuals of a species that a habitat can sustain indefinitely. With favorable environmental conditions, the carrying capacity increases while unfavorable environmental conditions decrease the carrying capacity.
