Question
Succession of Plants.
✓
Answer
Succession of plants is of two types based on the nature of the habitat. These are hydrarch or hydrosere which is based on water or very wetland areas and xerarch or xerosere based on very dry areas.
In wetter areas hydrarch succession begins and then successional series progress from hydric to the mesic conditions.
Xerarch succession starts in dry areas and the series progress from xeric to mesic conditions.
Both hydrarch and xerarch successions lead to mesic or medium water condition which is neither too xeric nor too hydric.
