Question

in the process of ecological succession, what do k-selected species contribute to?
no significant contribution
rapid population growth
early successional stages
formation of climax communities

Explanation:

K-selected species are adapted to stable, resource-limited environments. They have slow growth, long lifespans, and invest heavily in offspring survival. These traits allow them to thrive in mature, balanced ecosystems, which are the final climax communities of ecological succession. In contrast, r-selected species drive rapid growth and early succession stages.

Answer:

formation of climax communities
