Solution

The correct option is B

individuals in a species in a given area


All members or individuals of a particular species living in a particular area constitute its population. It is a higher level of organization than organisms because it consists of a group of organisms of the same species. Communities, on the other hand, are a group of interacting populations. The ecosystem is a biotic community interacting and functioning with the abiotic or physical factors of an environment.
