Consider the following statements:

1. The area of two overlapping ecosystems is called ecotype.
2. The final stable community in ecological succession is called sere.

Which of the given statements is/are correct?

1. The area of two overlapping ecosystems is called ecotone. An ecotone is a transition area between two biomes. It is where two communities meet and integrate. It may be narrow or wide, and it may be local or regional. An ecotype, sometimes called ecospecies, describes a genetically distinct geographic variety, population or race within species (or among closely related), which is adapted to specific environmental conditions.

1. The final stable community in ecological succession is called climax. Ecological succession is defined as an orderly process of changes in the community structure and function with time, mediated through modifications in the physical environment, and ultimately culminating in a stabilised ecosystem known as climax. The complete sequence of communities which are transitory is known as seral stages or seres.
