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 the gradual process by which ecosystems change and develop over time. Nothing remains the same and habitats are constantly changing. There are two main types of succession, primary and secondary.
Detailed explanation-3: -Some examples of the remnants that lead to secondary succession are: Some plants and animals from the previously existing animal-plant community. Soil and humus. Buried seeds, roots, underground vegetative organs of plants.
