The possibility that would have a large impact on the environment is **A. a population of robins die**.
The decline or death of a population can disrupt local ecosystems, affect food webs, and lead to changes in the abundance of other species. In contrast, competition for food (B), an abandoned nest (C), or the death of a single robin (D) are likely to have more localized or short-term effects. A significant loss of a population can have cascading effects on both the species involved and the broader environment.
