The correct option is B.

An ecotone is a transition area between two biological communities. It is the zone where two communities meet and integrate, and it often contains a diversity of species characteristic of both communities, as well as some species that are unique to the transition zone itself.

Ecological succession is the process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time. An ecological niche describes the role and position a species has in its environment. Climax community is the stable, mature stage of ecological succession. The description provided in the question accurately defines an ecotone.
