The individual transitional communities during ecological succession are called ________ communities.

Options

  1. Aprimary
  2. Bpioneer
  3. Cclimax
  4. Dseral

Correct answer

D. seral

Step-by-step solution

Ecological succession is the gradual and fairly predictable change in the species composition of a given area.

The entire sequence of communities that successively change in a given area is called a sere.

The individual transitional communities that develop during this process are termed seral stages or seral communities.

The first community to inhabit an area is called the pioneer community, while the final, stable community that is in near equilibrium with the environment is called the climax community.

Therefore, the individual transitional communities are called seral communities.
