Vedclass · Answer

(C) In ecological succession,the climax community is the final stable stage that remains relatively unchanged unless disturbed. At this stage,the community is in equilibrium with the environment,meaning it does not significantly modify the environment,and the environment does not force the community to change. Therefore,the Assertion is correct.However,the Reason is incorrect because the climax community is typically mesic (having moderate moisture conditions),not xerophytic. All successions,whether starting in water (hydrarch) or on bare rock (xerarch),eventually lead to a mesic climax community.

$(iv)$ Top carnivore	$(S)$ Sulphur

$A$: Neither the community modifies the environment nor the environment forces the community to leave the place in the climax stage of succession.
$R$: Climax community is xerophytic in most of the types of succession.
