Answer: c. volcano

An ecological succession is a gradual change in the biological community due to changes in the non-living or abiotic factors of the ecosystem and with respect to time until the ecosystem attains stability. Primary succession occurs in region which is not previously inhabitat by any floral or faunal species. It occurs specifically in barren and lifeless landforms. This includes regions where soil is incapable for plant growth.  Hot lava released after volcanic eruption will make the soil unsuitable for plant growth also rocks found in these regions are compact. Therefore, pioneer or primitive species act on such rocks and soil like lichen and produces acids which remove the compaction from these soils and make them suitable for growth of plants in that region.

During periods of rapid environmental change, what may happen to a species that was well-suited to the former environment?
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

The environment usually refers to all the biotic and the abiotic components that are surrounding us. This environment undergoes changes depending upon various factors which can be natural and/or due to the anthropogenic activities.

When there occur rapid environmental changes, then it directly affects the lives of species, in different ways, such as-

  • Those species that are comparatively weaker in adapting according to the environmental changes that occur, will not be able to cope up with the new environment. They may become extinct.
  • Some variety of species will be able to adapt to the new environment because of their easily adapting capabilities.
  • The traits that will be developed within the species in the new environment will be more successful in terms of reproduction.
  • The previously existed traits may have a harmful impact in the newly formed environment.
