Answer:

The correct option is B

<u> Succession</u> refers to the process that facilitates plant communities gradually changing over a period of time in order to respond to their environment.

Explanation:

Succession can be described as changes that occur in an ecosystem in response to the changes in the environment or any other disturbances.

Succession can be of two types. 1. Primary succession 2.Secondary succession

Primary succession occurs on lands where there was no life before. With time, plants start to grow here and a community is developed.

Secondary succession occurs on lands that have been destroyed due to any disturbances like a flood or a fire. Over time, new plants start to grow on this land and a community is developed.

If the outside temperature decreases by 20 degrees Celsius, what will happen to a reptile’s body temperature?
oksian1 [2.3K]

The reptile's body temperature rises when the external temperature rises. When the temperature drops, so does his body temperature. If a reptile feels cold because the external temperatures have made his blood cold, he'll lie in the sun to warm up. However, if the external temperature is too high, he scurries under a rock, dives in a pool or finds some kind of shade where he can cool down. Reptiles and other animals with ectothermic systems are vulnerable to extreme changes in temperature because they can't control their temperatures internally. They can control their body temperatures only by moving to an environment with a suitable ambient temperature.
