A population of a species is MORE likely to survive a change or disturbance in the environment if: O A. the environmental change is occurring rapidly (at a fast rate). O B. the population is small and near the critical number. O C. there is a lot of genetic variability in the population's gene pool (greater chance than there is a trait favorable to surviving the changed environment). O D. the species has a low biotic potential and reproduces slowly, with individuals having only few offspring over a long period of time.
