Detailed explanation-1: -By Max Witynski. Ecological succession is the process by which the mix of species and habitat in an area changes over time. Gradually, these communities replace one another until a “climax community”-like a mature forest-is reached, or until a disturbance, like a fire, occurs.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer: D it is a random process, The process through which the mix of species and environment in a given region changes over time is known as ecological succession.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ecological succession is the gradual and fairly predictable change in the species composition of a given area. During succession, some species colonies area and their population become more numerous, whereas, the population of other species declines and even disappears.
Detailed explanation-4: -These changes lead finally to a community that is in near equilibrium with the environment and that is called a climax community. The gradual and fairly predictable change in the species composition of a given area is called ecological succession.
