While developing the theory of natural selection, Darwin observed that each species could realise fully its innate potential to grow in the number in a particular habitat when

A
environmental conditions are unfavourable
B
natural disasters like floods and famine occur
C
resources in the habitat are unlimited
D
species undergoe mutations

Solution:

Any species growing exponentially under unlimited resource conditions can reach enormous population densities in a short time. Darwin showed how even a slow growing animal like elephant could reach enormous numbers in the absence of checks.
