Answer: Option D

Explanation:

In interspecific competition two species use the same resource that is found at a particular place in a limited amount.

A niche is can be defined as a place which defines a set of conditions, resources and interactions it needs.

This states that one mountain can have many niches as more than two species compete for the same biotic resource.
