Solution

The correct option is C Both A and B
If number of organisms increased at a specific place, the intra species competition will be increased as members of the same species compete for limited resources which leads to a reduction in fitness for both individuals. Increase of the number of organisms will also increase Inter species competition which occurs when members of different species compete for a shared resource.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
