Solution
The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
Secondary succession is faster than primary succession and began at places where natural biotic communities have been destroyed due to natural or man-made activities like burning and cutting of forests, flooded land, abandoned farmlands etc. As the soil and sediments are present and they have a lot of organic debris, it takes lesser time to develop.It is caused due to baring of an area due to forest fire, deforestation etc. The time of the forest reduces from 200 years to 100 years.
So, the correct option is "Both Assertion and reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion".
