Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": Nathan has a comparative advantage in producing timber.

Explanation:

Comparative advantage can be defined as the advantage an individual, institution or country has over competitors by producing at lower opportunity costs. Having a comparative advantage does not imply the individual or country has an absolute advantage which implies industry rivals are unlikely to imitate the comparative-advantage company due to factors such as uniqueness of the raw materials or processes in production.

Thus, <em>as Nathan can grow trees closer to each other than in Lucas's farm, Nathan has a comparative advantage over Lucas since possessing farms the same size and counting on the same resources, Nathan can grow more trees and produce more timber.</em>
