On an expedition to a barren land that had witnessed volcanic activity, geologists noticed heavy lichen growth on some of the ha

rd lava. In other areas, lichens were replaced by grasses. After many years, the geologists expect to find the area filled with full-grown hardwood trees, grasses, and shrubs. What is this process called?

The answer is A. Succession.

Succession is the process of change in the structure of species in some community or ecosystem. S<span>uccession is important because it leads to mature and stable communities. The purpose of succession is for an ecosystem to reach balance state right after it is formed or after it is disturbed by man or some disasters. It will increase biodiversity and help to prevent the desertification.</span>

The process is called succession. This process involves the evolution of the structure of a biological community over time. Mutualism and competition refers to relationships of species or population species involved in a food chain.


<span>By process of elimination you could also come up with the most logical answer.</span>


The correct answer choice is: A) Succession


I hope this helps, Regards.

Ecosystems include food webs that show predation and prey interactions among organisms. But ecosystems have many more relationsh
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Food webs describe the relationships — links or connections — among species in an ecosystem, but the relationships vary in their importance to energy flow and dynamics of species populations. Some trophic relationships are more important than others in dictating how energy flows through ecosystems. Some connections are more influential on species population change. Based on different ways in which species influence one another, Robert Paine proposed three types of food webs based on the species of a rocky intertidal zone on the coast of Washington (Ricklefs 2008, Figure 2). Connectedness webs (or topological food webs) emphasize feeding relationships among species, portrayed as links in a food web (Paine 1980). Energy flow webs quantify energy flow from one species to another. Thickness of an arrow reflects the strength of the relationship. Functional webs (or interaction food webs) represent the importance of each species in maintaining the integrity of a community and reflect influence on the growth rate of other species' populations. As shown in Figure 2, limpets Acmaea pelta and A. mitra in the community consume considerable food energy (energy flow web), but removal of these consumers has no detectable influence on the abundance of their resources (functional web). The most effective control was exerted by sea urchin Stronglocentrotus and the chiton Katharina (Ricklefs 2008).
