Cash Ballard · Answer 2

D. Food is usually shipped in from far away

Explanation:

Carrying capacity can be described as the measure of the number of species of a population that a particular area can hold. An area will have resources like space and food to sustain a particular number of a population.

Beyond the carrying capacity, the species will have to fight for the scarce resources. For example, in option D, the food in a particular area is not enough to feed its inhabitants. That means the population is more than the carrying capacity of that area. Hence, food has to be shipped from a different area.
