The burrowing owl is found in dry, open areas such as grasslands, prairies, savannas, deserts, farmlands, golf courses, and other urban areas throughout most of western united states and florida, central america, and most of south america. it makes its home in burrows of other animals and primarily eats insects and small rodents. as humans build more cities, nearby burrowing owl habitats change due to destruction of burrows and loss of prey. which is the least likely outcome of the habitat changes that are described?
a. the niche of the burrowing owl may change as it adapts to the changes.
b. the niche of the burrowing owl may change as it moves to a new habitat.
c. the population of the burrowing owl may be reduced or even become extinct.
d. the population of the burrowing owl may increase in its new surroundings.

D. The population of the burrowing owl may increase in its new surroundings.

Explanation:

An ecological niche can be define as the functional role that an organism play in it's living environment. This involves the type of food that an organism consumes, type of habitat chosen for survival and the type of mating season chosen.

The burrowing owl population is likely to get disturbed due to habitat destruction. This can be considered as the disturbance of niche of the burrowing oil. Not all members will occupy the same new habitat. Thus,  D. The population of the burrowing owl may increase in its new surroundings. is the least likely outcome of the habitat change.
