Answer:
c. decaying plant and animal remains
C. A new source of freshwater
Explanation:
The situation that would most likely increase the carrying capacity for humans in a certain region is the availability of new sources of freshwater.
In ecological terms, the carrying capacity of a place is the the number of people, animals, or crops which a region can support without environmental degradation.
- A new source of freshwater provides new resources for the ecosystem.
- In the freshwater, more fishes are available, more plants can grow around and a lot of biological activities can progress.
- Water is essential for life.
- Fresh water sources are incentives for choosing to live in a place or not.
- A fresh water source increases the carrying capacity for humans in a certain region.

Answer:
a. parasitism:
The parasite benefits by harming the host e.g hookworms and humans
b. commensalism
In this association, one species benefits while the other is unaffected (its not harm and dies not benefit) e.g. epiphytic orchids and trees
c. mutualism
Here, both species benefit as seen in rumen bacteria and cows
Explanation:
Parasitism = +/- relationship
The predator benefits by harming the host. E.g. hookworms and humans. The hookworm (parasite) eat man blood while man (host) loses blood to it.
Commensalism = +/0 relationship
One specie(s) benefits while the other specie(s) neither benefits nor is harmed. E.g. epiphytic orchids live on tree branches or tree trunks as it's habitat or shelter while the trees neither benefits nor is harmed
Mutualism = +/+ relationship
Both organisms benefit in this relationship. E.g. rumen microbes aids grass digestion in cows, while the microbes benefit as it obtain steady food or nutrient from the cow
