Squirrels eat acorns. Good acorn production happens when there are good growing conditions for the oak trees that make acorns. Often, there are many acorns produced one year but very few acorns the next year. What is the most likely impact on the squirrel population in years when fewer acorns are produced? Nest size will increase.

Competition will increase.

Predation risks will increase.

Reproduction rates will increase.

B competition will increase

Explanation:

this is because if there are less acorns then squirrels then they will all fight for the acorns and some will die to starvation. nest size won't increase because there isn't enough food for the squirrels already there. predation will decrease because there is less squirrels so that means less pray for the animals that eat the squirrels. then there is reproduction rates will increase. It is not that one because there are squirrels dying from starvation there aren't squirrels reproducing. that is why your answer is B.

True
