What are the order of the stages of primary succession beginning with glacial retreat as seen at glacier bay?
adelina 88 [10]

Answer: The order of the stages of primary succession as seen at glacier bay are Pioneer, Dryas, Alder, and Spruce stages.

Explanation:

Primary succession is the process that plant species use to colonize a sterile habitat. The first living organisms, the pioneer species are hardy species, for example moss that are able to survive in any habitat. These change the unfavorable environment (lava, rock) to soil.

In Glacier bay, Alaska, the dryas came next, providing the soil with Nitrogen, then Alders which maintains the nitrogen content in the soil. This is followed by spruce trees which grow in the the shade of the alder .

Analyze the image below and answer the question that follows.
Grace [21]

Answer:

It should be the Prime Meridian.

Explanation:

You do not have a picture but the equator is a line of latitude that travels east to west. The International Date line is an imaginary line through the Pacific Ocean that begins a new day (it has to do with time zones). The Arctic Circle is only in the north and it is a circle, not a line. Lastly, the prime Meridian is a line of longitude that travels from north to south and cuts the world in half between eastern and western hemispheres, like the Equator cuts the globe into the northern and southern hemispheres. The Prime Meridian goes through the Atlantic Ocean and cuts off put of Africa.

I hope this helps!
