This is clandestinely wrong. If D is correct then C is also correct because if you are saying yam and potato are the same specie then Eagle and hawk are also the same specie. Please the answer is B

yam and potatoes are of different species but competiting for same food(sunlight)

Hawk and eagle are of different species but competing for same food

lizard and ant eater are of different species and are still competing for the same food.

now if the question is based on intraspecific competition, (A type of competition that involves two organisms of the same species and most times genus (BINOMIAL NOMENCLATURE), then all other options except B is very very wrong.

worker timites and soldier termites are of thr same specie and competing for space (as thr question suggests)
Therefore it clearly describes INTRASPECIFIC COMPETITION 🌟🀝
