Sometimes, due to biotic/abiotic factor, the climax remains in a particular seral stage (pre-climax) without reaching climax. Do you agree with this statement? If yes, give a suitable example.

This entire sequence of communities that successively change in a given area is called sere (s). All the biotic and abiotic factors play a crucial role in this transition process and thus enable a community to reach the climax. If biotic and abiotic factors are not supportive enough for the climax, then the community may remain in a particular seral stage without reaching the climax.

Presence of sparse vegetation at Tabletop Mountain can be one example of a community in the seral stage. The community at the tabletop mountain may be in a stage in which only ferns and mosses may be present. In due course of time, it would pave the way for higher plants.
