Question

One autumn, a beech seed blows into a sunny meadow. Following a cold, wet winter, it sprouts. The seedling grows into a sapling. The sapling grows into a taller tree. After several years, it grows lateral branches. Each spring, these leaf, making a shady, cool space under the tree. Over the years, leaf litter decays, forming deep, rich soil. Nevertheless, over time the population of meadow grass under the tree declines. What limiting factor has affected the grass's growth?

Answer 1

Accumulation of waste products.

Step-by-step explanation:

The accumulation of the waste products under the tree is the limit factors that affects the growth of the grass. The accumulation of the waste products proposes that the molecules are damaged by the oxidation process and they are accumulated on the soil.

The leaves of the beech tree shades and falls on the ground and it decays there forming a rich soil. It covers the grassland nearby. Also the beech tree branches out making a small canopy over the grassland. So sunlight is prevent to reach the ground. This limits the growth of the meadows and thus the population of the meadow grass is seen to decline under the tree.
