Answer:
D. It is a process of change during which species in a community are established or replaced
Explanation:
Ecological succession is a process that occurs when a community is being established or replaced.
It shows the change in community over time, focusing on the types of plants and the maturity of plants that are in the community.
Primary and secondary succession are the two types of succession. Primary succession shows the process of change in the establishment of a community. Secondary succession shows the change when a community is being replaced.
So, the correct answer is D. It is a process of change during which species in a community are established or replaced
Answer:
The correct answer would be "The female cone releases its seeds and new sporophytes grow".
Conifers are sporophytes with two types of cones; pollen cones and ovulate cone.
The pollen cones are smaller in size and produce microspores which would develop into the pollen grains.
The ovulate cones are larger in size which produce megaspores which would develop into ovule.
The two gametes fertilized to produce a diploid zygote which develops into the embryo.
The fertilization takes place in the ovule and thus, embryo or seed is developed in the female cone.
The female cone then releases its seed which grows into a new sporophyte.
