Human activities affect the operation of physical environment processes, and the results rebound on the human world. ... The physical environment provides resources and a platform to use those resources, but can also be a hazard to people. Therefore human impact as a subject is of special concern to physical geographers.

<u>Answer:</u>

Physical environment enables humans to choose the right area for activity and settlement. Physical environment that provides the right kind of land surface, climate and other natural resources is chosen for human activity and settlement.

For instance, a desert may not provide the right kind of soil, surface and climate for humans to settle and indulge in any activity. On the other hand, the plains that have fertile soil  and a moderate climate will attract more human activity and settlement.

Primary succession takes much longer than secondary succession because it involves?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

C. time for weathering of rock and development of the soil horizons

Explanation:

The primary succession is the initial colonization of a previously existing ecosystem that has been totally destroyed by some disastrous event. During this colonization, the organisms that settle in are ones that do not have any particular requirements for their survival, like the lichens and mosses. As they spread all over the area, they slowly start to influence the rocks on which they have grown, little by little weather them and providing them with organic matter. This gives rise to the first soil horizon, but it is very shallow and the soil is not well formed, so lot of time needs until the soil becomes suitable enough for the secondary succession to occur. When the secondary succession occurs it means that there's soil formed in the area, so new organisms move in, and as they do they replace the ones from the primary succession, slowly forming a new ecosystem and well balanced ecological community.
