This is known as punctuated equilibrium, a theory in evolutionary biology that suggests species undergo long periods of stasis with little change, punctuated by short bursts of rapid change leading to new species formation. This pattern challenges the traditional view of gradual, continuous evolution.
Evolution
Punctuated equilibrium theory proposes that species evolve rapidly during short periods of significant change, followed by long periods of stability with little evolutionary change. This contrasts with gradualism, which suggests that evolution occurs steadily over long periods of time.
Biological communities change due to various factors such as competition for resources, predation, environmental disturbances (e.g. natural disasters, climate change), and human activities like habitat destruction and pollution. These factors can lead to shifts in species composition, population dynamics, and overall ecosystem structure.
Habitats can change naturally due to processes like wildfires, which can create open spaces and promote new growth. Additionally, climate change can alter habitats by changing temperature and precipitation patterns, affecting the types of species that can thrive in the area.
Communities are expected to change naturally over long periods of time because the environment changes.
A change in plant communities through time is Succession.

it change by the age..
No
graves change over long periods of time because of sedimentary rock.
Evolution is the change in species over long periods of time.
