Answer:

B. the appearance of lichens and mosses in an area where a glacier has recently melted away

Explanation:

Ecological succession, which refers to the series of changes that occurs over time in an ecosystem, can be of two types namely: primary succession and secondary succession.

Primary succession is a succession that involves an area where no form of life has grown previously, hence, the area of land is barren e.g bare rock. Primary succession is first colonized by species called PIONEER SPECIES e.g. lichens, mosses etc.

According to this question, "the appearance of lichens and mosses (pioneer species) in an area where a glacier has recently melted away" is an example of PRIMARY SUCCESSION.

Cell division only happens during reproduction true or false
Ahat [919]

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

When cells divide, they make new cells. A single cell divides to make two cells and these two cells then divide to make four cells, and so on. We call this process "cell division" and "cell reproduction," because new cells are formed when old cells divide
