Question

In 1980, a long dormant volcano, Mount St. Helens in Washington state, erupted violently. The eruption wiped out the forested landscape and the wildlife. Months after the initial disturbance, the ash and rock strewn surface began to undergo primary succession.

Answer 1

Answer:

New vegetation and animals came to this place when the environment is suitable.

Explanation:

The ash and rock strewn surface began to undergo primary succession after few month when the soil is cool down because the soil has nutritive medium that helps the vegetation to grow on that land. In the primary succession, the new vegetation grows which is well suited to that environmental condition and uses the nutrients present in that soil for its growth and development. Many new organisms also came to this new landscape when the environment is suitable.
