The answer is dormancy

Right away we can tell that dispersal is not the answer. It simply refers to how plant seeds are spread around. 

That leaves us with fertilization, germination, and dormancy. 
Fertilization refers to the union of the male and female reproductive cells which form a fertilized egg. However, the embryo is not alive at this point yet, so we can move on to the next answer choices. 

Germination, this is the actual growth of a seedling from the seed. We are looking for a period in which is not growing so by its very definition, germination cannot be the answer. 

Lastly, we have dormancy. 

Dormancy is a period in which the embryo is dormant. Think about a dormant volcano. There is magma within the volcano, and it is considered "alive" but it does not erupt. Similarly, a dormant embryo of a seed is one that is alive but simply isn't growing. This typically happens during winter. Almost as if it undergoes hibernation.

Answer:

As image is not provided,let's discuss about ecological succession.

Explanation:

Ecological succession can be described as the development of a community from its pioneer to climax community. There are two types of ecological succession:

Primary ecological succession: This type of succession occurs in lands where there was no life before or in lands where signs of life have completely been removed like an lava eruption. The rocks in this land are broken down and slowly, pioneer species begin to grow.

Secondary  Succession: This type of succession arises after a natural disaster like fire etc or after any human activity has wiped out the previous community which survived on this land. smalls shrubs and grass starts to grow back on this land, which is replaced by the intermediate species and finally with the climax community.
