Solution

The correct option is A Smaller
In interspecies competition, two species use the same limited resource. Competition has a negative effect on both of the species. Mostly it occurs when there is a limited resource and two species are trying to accommodate. This competition has adverse effects on all species utilizing a similar and limited resource at the same time and place making them smaller in population size.
So the correct answer is 'Smaller'.
