Detailed explanation-1: -Aquatic succession is a series of stages involving the gradual infilling of a shallow lake or pond with sediments. It is composed of 7 stages: (1) phytoplankton stage; (2) rooted submerged stage; (3) floating stage; (4) reed-swamp stage; (5) sedge-meadow stage; (6) woodland stage; and (7) climax stage.
Detailed explanation-2: -Submerged Plants →Floating Plants →Reeds→ Herbs→Shrubs→Trees.
Detailed explanation-3: -So, the correct answer is ‘Submerged plants → Floating plants → Reed swamp stage → Sedges’.
Detailed explanation-4: -Hydrosere is the primary succession sequence which develops in aquatic environments such as lakes and ponds. It results in conversion of water body and its community into a land community.
