The correct option is A True

Ecological succession is a community controlled phenomenon, in which the structure and composition of communities change in an orderly and sequential manner, leading ultimately to the establishment of a more or less stable climax community.
  • There is a gradual and fairly predictable change occurs in the species composition of a given area. Some species colonise an area and their populations become more. In the successive seral stages, there is a change in the diversity of species, increase in the number of species and organisms and also in the total biomass.
