Answer 2

The statement that best describes process of succession after a forest fire is A. Small plants grow but are eventually replaced by larger plants.

Step-by-step explanation:

The example illustrated in this question is a kind of secondary succession.

Succession can be described as the variations in a particular community or ecosystem over a period of time. Succession has two types which are

• primary succession
• secondary succession

Secondary succession results due to natural disturbances like fire, storms, etc.

In this kind of succession, a natural disaster completely destroys a community leaving behind only barren soil. Over a period of time, Small plants start to grow on this land. Herbaceous plants are the first ones to evolve. Eventually, the larger plants start to grow later and the land becomes revived again.
