Answer 1

Grass is a living organism. Even the hardiest living organisms can’t survive everything. So when they die they are no longer alive and the new space will be taken by a new grass seed. However these seeds might not germinate for a variety of reasons such as being eaten or stepped on thus creating patchy lawns.
