Which of the following is not a characteristic of pioneer species ?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

They remain in an environment,even as more competitive species arrive

Explanation:

Pioneer species, in ecological succession, are the first set of organisms to colonize a bare area of land or a disturbed area of land. Pioneer species include lichens, grasses, fungi etc.

Pioneer species have unique characteristics that distinguishes them from every other species of organism. These include:

- They facilitate environmental change, making an environment more habitable for other species.

- They tolerate a wide range of environmental conditions.

- They are capable of colonizing a barren environment, as in primary succession.

However, pioneer species do not remain in an environment, even as more competitive species arrive. They rather give way for new species to emerge and dominate.

C)
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Plants and trees are the primary sources of food for a food chain or a food web. If the population of the primary producers reduces than it affects the whole food web. If the deciduous trees are destroyed due to a fire, there will be less food available for the primary predators. As a result, competition will begin between them and their population will decline. Due to this, the population of other organisms which fed on the primary consumers will also decline.
