The correct answer is: B.Carrying Capacity.

As a population grows, it will most likely stop growing when it reaches the carrying capacity of the environment. The carrying capacity is the maximum number of individuals that an ecosystem can support sustainably, given the available resources (such as food, water, shelter) and environmental factors (like space and climate). When the population approaches or reaches this capacity, growth slows or stabilizes due to these limitations.

Why not the other options?

A.Growth limit: This term is not commonly used in ecology. While populations may experience factors that limit growth (like resource shortages), "growth limit" is not a standard term to describe the stopping point of growth.
