Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -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. Ecological succession is a fundamental concept in ecology.
Detailed explanation-2: -Terrestrial ecosystems change over time, especially after a disturbance, in a process called ecological succession. Ecological succession’s definition is best described as the changes in a terrestrial area over time through the colonization of organisms after a large disturbance.
