A.
Explanation:
Pioneer plants are to plants species that appear first in virgin land – such an after a volcanic eruption. They are mainly lower plants such as lichen, fungi, and noses. These species can grow on rocks and break them down over time to form soil. This is due to the fact that the plants have very shallow roots that can even grow in the small crevices of rocks and can draw water from the atmosphere – moisture. This releases the nutrients in the rocks and makes them available to higher plants that have deeper roots. The ecology of the region will ultimately be succeeded by a climax community over time, mainly dominated by tree species.

Answer: 25%
Explanation: According to the Florida Industrial and Phosphate Research Institute, Florida’s phosphate mining accounts for about 75% of the phosphate used in the United States, as well as about 25% phosphate used around the world. Although first mined in England in 1847, and used as fertilizer, In 1881, a civilian employee, J Francis Le Baron discovered Phosphate pebbles in peace river, and then, a hard rock phosphate district was discovered in north central Florida after that which began the Phosphate mining industry in Florida. Phosphorus rock supplies the phosphorus element in the fertilizer mix of nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium that is used as fertilizer to aid in growth of plants.
