Solution

The correct option is B

Intraspecific competition


When population density increases the resources become limiting; which leads to competition between individuals of the population for the resources. Such a competition is called intraspecific competition. Interspecific competition however is competition that occurs between two different species; Mutualism is a relationship that mutually beneficial for both the partners, for eg. bees and flowers.
