Answer:

C. Variations within a species are necessary for evolutionary change

Explanation:

Darmin, an English naturalist states a theory on species which states that all species of organisms arise and develop through the natural selection of small, inherited variations. This would lead to increase in the individual's (species of organism) ability to compete, survive, and reproduce.

This simply means that, irrespective of human population growth, organisms would always elvove inorder to survive in a highly competitive environment on the world.
