Clumped distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

Clumped distribution applies to this type of example

  • Clumped distribution is a type of species distribution in which individuals or plants are clustered in groups in a place
  • In the given example stand of cardinal flower is observed three different times along the path in the woods
  • This type of distribution may arise due the fact that plants may have dropped their seeds straight to the ground
  • Stand of flowers is observed at three different times and not distributed uniformly or randomly
