Question
which is the best example of the final stage of secondary succession? a freshly - cut field a forest barren dirt
Secondary succession is the process of ecological recovery in an area where a disturbance has occurred but soil and some organisms remain. The final stage of secondary succession is the climax community, which is a stable and mature ecosystem. A forest is a complex and stable ecosystem with a diverse range of species and interactions, representing a climax community. A freshly - cut field is in an earlier stage of succession as it is recovering from the disturbance of cutting. Barren dirt would be more characteristic of primary succession (where there is no soil initially) rather than the final stage of secondary succession.
