- Let's identify the perfect squares in the sequence. The perfect squares up to 9 are 1, 4, and 9.

- We need to find odd numbers immediately following these perfect squares.

- Let's examine the sequence: 4 3 1 5 7 8 3 1 6 2 9 7 1 2 1 3 5 2 6 8 6 5 4 3 2 1 3 8 7.

- Perfect square 4 is followed by 3 (odd).

- Perfect square 1 is followed by 5, 3 (odd), 2, and another 3 (odd).

- Perfect square 9 is followed by 7 (odd).

- Total odd numbers preceded by perfect squares: 3 (from 4 and two 1s), 5, 7.

- Count the results: Total five odd numbers.

- Correct Answer is Option 5: More than four.
