The translocon (commonly known as a translocator or translocation channel) is a complex of proteins associated with the translocation of polypeptides across membranes.[1] In eukaryotes the term translocon most commonly refers to the complex that transports nascent polypeptides with a targeting signal sequence into the interior (cisternal or lumenal) space of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) from the cytosol. This translocation process requires the protein to cross a hydrophobic lipid bilayer. The same complex is also used to integrate nascent proteins into the membrane itself (membrane proteins). In prokaryotes, a similar protein complex transports polypeptides across the plasma membrane or integrates membrane proteins.[2] Bacterial pathogens can also assemble other translocons in their host membranes, allowing them to export virulence factors into their target cells.[3]

KIM [24]

Answer:

D overlap for a variety of species.

Explanation:

During ecological succession, a sequence of changes occurs in a community at a temporal and spatial level. Local colonizations and extinctions occur while ecosystems evolve at a more complex level.  

Ecological succession occurs in <u>stages</u>. The first stages are represented by communities of simple trophic levels and few species. With time, as the communities go through different stages, they transform into more complex ecosystems, that are much richer in diversity, and showing more interaction among the different species that compose it.  The final stage is known as the climax and represents a mature and stable system.

While the community is going through these changes, many species get extinct while many others get to emerge and survive. It occurs overlapping of different taxonomic groups that interact with each other competing or beneficiating other groups.
