Answer: c) Monitor the acorn production of the oak trees for several seasons.

Explanation:

A food chain is the chain of transmission of food and energy when one organism consumes the other organism in an ecosystem.

According to the given situation, the squirrel population is dependent upon the oak trees as source of food. The hawks are dependent upon the population of squirrel as source of food. The certain decline of the squirrel as well as the hawk population may be due to the decrease in production of the oak trees for several seasons. This will reduce the population of the squirrel due to lack of food and the likelywise the population of hawk will also decline as the population will not receive squirrels as food.

Write three observations that could help you identify a fish.
Alex
The three observations that could help an individual in distinguising whether the organism is a fish or not is that it should live under water as fish can't survive without water, another thing is that it should laid eggs when it comes to giving birth because when it does not lay eggs but produces a living organism normally without an egg, it is considered to be a mammal and lastly, the appearance it possess such as having gils or fins.
