The correct response is:

because 10 acres is still a lot less than the 1996-1997 peak, when monarchs had occupied 44.5 acres of habitat.

This indicates that despite the increase in the population, the current habitat coverage is still significantly lower than previous years, thus highlighting the need for continued conservation efforts.
