options:
(a) the reproductive rate of the organism.
(b) the number of organisms of that species.
(c) the state and national wildlife laws pertaining to that species.
(d) the age distribution of that species.
(e) the limited availability of renewable resources in the environment and the environmental resistance to the biotic potential of the organism.
Answer: (e) the limited availability of renewable resources in the environment and the environmental resistance to the biotic potential of the organism.
Explanation: The carrying capacity refers to the highest number of the species that the environment can cater for, in terms of food, space and other necessities that supports life.
Thus, the available of renewable resources (i.e resources that can be reused after consumption e.g water) in the environment, plays as a determinant of the highest number of individuals an environment can support (carrying capacity).
Furthermore, environmental resistance to the biotic potential of the organism, is also a determinant of the carrying capacity of organisms inhabiting that particular environment.

Answer:
There are concrete evidences of chimpanzees in wild part of Tanzania do intake Vernonia amygdalina, which possess anti-parasitic properties and hence helps in treatment of parasitic infestations.
Explanation:
On critical scientific analysis of vernonia amygdalina, it is observed that vernonia contains various lactones and glucosides steroids which showed anti-parasitic property. But the self medication hypothesis is not at all agreeable. Because chimpanzees don't have such brain to judge which things has medicinal values or from which infections or diseases they are suffering. It is perhaps observed that vernonia taste bitter and often animal take bitter food that triggers in them the feeling of satiety or reverse peristalsis to get rid of excess food by vomiting.
