Two forest communities are shown here at different stages of succession. The different plant species and their relatee abundance a indicated by the diagram. Researchers find that rodent populations are more abundant in forest A while deer populations are more abundant in forest What describes the difference in the populations observed by the researchers! A) B) Forest Aras is in an earlier stage of succession and does not have as many mature trees upon which deer feed Forest Blacks grasses due to lower Light levels at the ground removing species that is toxic to most deer population Forest Blacks the canopy closure required for protection of rodents from predators which decreases the rodent populations Forest All at a later state of succession allowing for more rodents to migrate to the area and be found at a higher abundance D​
