Question

what kind of dispersal pattern do the trees represent? a. uniform b. random c. clumped

Explanation:

In ecology, a clumped dispersal pattern means individuals are grouped together. Looking at the image, the trees are not evenly spaced (so not uniform - A is out) and not randomly placed with no discernible grouping (so not random - B is out). They show a clustered or grouped appearance which aligns with the clumped pattern.

Answer:

C. clumped
