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: -Ecological succession is a gradual process of change and replacement of the types of species in a community. Each new community that arises often makes it harder for the previous community to survive. Primary succession is a type of succession that occurs on a surface where no ecosystem existed before.

Detailed explanation-3: -The 5 stages of Ecological Succession include the following – Nudation, Competition and Co-action, Invasion, Reaction, and Climax or Stabilization.
