<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Climax-Pattern Theory
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- The Climax Pattern Theory emphasizes that a natural community is adapted to the whole pattern of environmental factors in which it exists.
- In addition to climatic factors, e.g. wind, there are a whole range of edaphic factors, fire, and biotic factors, including grazing, disease and mutualistic and competitive interactions.
- The Climax Pattern Theory allows a continuity of climax types, varying gradually along environmental gradients and not neatly packaged into discrete climax types.
