Explain the succession of plants.

(N/A) Plant succession is the process by which the structure of a biological community evolves over time.
Based on the nature of the habitat,plant succession is categorized into two types: hydrarch and xerarch.
$1$. Hydrarch succession: This occurs in wet areas (like ponds or lakes),where the successional series progresses from a hydric (wet) environment to a mesic (medium water) condition.
$2$. Xerarch succession: This occurs in dry areas (like bare rock),where the series progresses from a xeric (dry) environment to a mesic condition.
Both types of succession ultimately lead to a stable climax community in mesic conditions,which are neither too dry nor too wet.
The first species to colonize a bare area are known as pioneer species.
