Answer:
Secondary succession
Explanation:
Ecological succession is the term used to describe any series of change in the composition of an ecosystem over a particular period of time. Ecological succession is made up of two types viz: primary succession and secondary succession.
Primary succession involves the formation of a brand new ecosystem by the colonization of a barren area of land e.g bare rock, where no life existed. Secondary succession, on the other hand, is the recolonization of an area by a new set of organisms because the previously existing organisms have been wiped out by certain disasters e.g fire outbreak, hurricanes etc. In secondary succession, there is soil, which makes it possible for new organisms to sprout quickly after the calamity.
Example of secondary succession is when a fire outbreak burns the organisms in a community, allowing the root of grasses to sprout after.

Question continuation;
..........type B. Type A is found to be more common in the mainland population from which the island was settled.
How could a geneticist best explain the dominance of blood type B in the island population?
Multiple choices;
A. Random mutations have occurred in the island population.
B. Genetic drift has reduced the frequency of type A individuals.
C. Natural selection has only occurred in the mainland population.
D. Environmental conditions on the island are less favorable for type B individuals.
Answer;
B. Genetic drift has reduced the frequency of type A individuals.
Explanation;
-Genetic drift is a mechanism of evolution in which allele frequencies of a population change over generations due to chance.
-It occurs in all populations of non-infinite size, but its effects are strongest in small populations.
