Question
Chapter 53.2, Problem 1SB
Summary Introduction
To review:
The communities that suggest that their assemblages of species is a matter of chance that happen to be adapted to similar abiotic environmental conditions.
Introduction:
The interaction between the populations affects the formation of ecological communities. Many hypotheses are developed to predict the nature of ecological communities. One of them includes an interactive view hypothesis of Frederic Clément on the community.

The fire is contained and burns out and the chemical spill is cleaned up. Monitoring of the plant community following this disturbance researchers noticed that after the spill and fire there was a sharp drop in species diversity, abundance, and richness. Over the next 5 years the area was monitored. The community's diversity, abundance, and richness all increased slightly during the first year however after the first year only the abundance went up during the following 4 years with no changes in any other area.
