Succession occurs when environmental factors affecting an ecosystem change. True or False
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer: True

Succession is the phenomena in which changes in the biotic and abiotic factors of the environment leads to change in the ecosystem. A succession is a process in which a biological community is replaced by another biological community until a mature ecosystem is formed this process is influence by environmental factors. Primary succession is the primitive environment where no biotic community previously existed it is followed by secondary and subsequent succession were life forms develop and form an ecosystem. Some of the environmental factors are:

Topographical : These are the change in the region or habitat were succession occurs. Landslides, volcanic eruption, glacier melting etc. are the examples , as these topographical changes can bring reformation of the landscape. The disturbance caused by these topographical changes will allow the disturbance tolerant species to repopulate the habitat.  This can be a transition from primary to secondary succession.

Soil : It is an abiotic factor.The growth of the plants requires suitable soil conditions. The type of soil will affect which species will inhabit the area. The soil moisture and pH greatly affect the number of plant species in an area.

Climate : It can influence the direction of succession. Climatic factors includes rain, wind etc. For example a region lacking proper rainfall the species will be tolerant to dry and drought conditions. The region with heavy rainfall, the species will be more tolerant to moisture. Wind being a climatic factor can cause wind erosion affect the soil quality. Wind can lead to heavy forest fires can therefore, wiped out community.

what is the significance of diffusion and osmosis in living organism ?give one example in support of your answer​
olasank [31]

Answer:

Diffusion is the process in which molecules and ions move from a region of high concentration to low concentration. Its also how cells transport waste out of the cell and nutrients into it hence being very crucial. Diffusion also occurs without the expenditure of extra energy using a procedure known as passive transport. (Osmosis is a form of diffusion but deals with water exclusively).

Examples of where diffusion is important;

In the intestines - Digested food molecules such as amino acids and glucose move down the concentration gradient from the intestine into the bloodstream. Wastes such as carbon dioxide or urea travel via diffusion from the body's cells to the bloodstream.

Osmosis plays a major role in living organisms. It aids in the transportation of nutrients from cells to cells and also helps to remove the waste's metabolic products from the cell. The purification of blood in the kidneys is also dependent on the process of osmosis.
