mafiozo [28]3 years ago
7 0

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.

Which of the following is a domestic influence on foreign policy?
LenKa [72]

The correct answer is - A famine in Ireland prompts US response.

With the Irish famine of the 19th century, and the response to it by the United States, we have a very nice example of domestic influence on foreign policy.

Namely, the Irish potato famine was so bad, that very large percentage of the Irish population actually died, and the rest of the population was on the verge of starvation. Because of this, lots of people wanted to move out of the country in order to at least be able to have food on the table. This prompted a response from the United States, and they made an exception in their strict foreign policy because of the Irish people, so opened their borders to them in order to help them, thus letting them settle in the country.
