Biology

Answer:

B. Primary succession is the establishment of a community in an area with no soil, while secondary succession is the establishment of a new community in an existing ecosystem that was disturbed.

Explanation:

In Biology, ecological succession refers to changes in the structure of the populations of species that inhabit a specific area.

Primary succession starts when <u>species colonize new, previously inhabited areas with no soil.</u> The species that appear first are known as pioneer species that do not require a great amount of nutrients or soil, for example lichens.

Secondary succession refers to a situation in which <u>a previously inhabited area is re-colonized after a disturbance.</u> It begins with grasses, then followed by shrubs, and finally with trees before fauna species can also appear.

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

The population of herbivores wouldn't decrease because their food source is being increased. Predators wouldn't leave because more herbivores come to eat the increased number of producers, thus more than likely increasing the number of predators.
