In ecological succession, ‘Reaction’ refers to the modifications made by organisms to their physical habitat. These changes, such as altering soil composition, light availability, or nutrient levels, significantly influence the suitability of the environment for the existing community and pave the way for the establishment of subsequent communities. It is a crucial feedback mechanism that drives the process of succession forward.
