Which of these represent primary succession?

Multiple Choice

Secondary Succession

• the development of an ecological community in an area that was once inhabited but experienced devastation.

• the alternation of the area and conditions in which an organism lives to that the organism can no longer live in them.

• ·       the dynamically stable ecological community representing the final stage of ecological succession.

• the sum of the different forms of living things in a given area or population.

Multiple Choice

Primary Succession

• the development of an ecological community in a previously uninhabited location.

• the development of an ecological community in an area that was once inhabited but experienced devastation.

• the first plant species to grow during primary succession.

• a biotic or abiotic environmental factor that restricts the growth of a population.

Multiple Choice

Pioneer Species

• the first plant species to grow during primary succession.

• the development of an ecological community in a previously uninhabited location.

• the development of an ecological community in an area that was once inhabited but experienced devastation.

• the sum of the different forms of living things in a given area or population.

Multiple Choice

Natural Disaster

• a force of nature that results in catastrophic consequences.

• the first plant species to grow during primary succession.

• the development of an ecological community in a previously uninhabited location.

• the development of an ecological community in an area that was once inhabited but experienced devastation.

Multiple Choice

Climax Community

• the dynamically stable ecological community representing the final stage of ecological succession.

• the alternation of the area and conditions in which an organism lives to that the organism can no longer live in them.

• a biotic or abiotic environmental factor that restricts the growth of a population.

• a force of nature that results in catastrophic consequences.

Multiple Choice

Biodiversity

• the sum of the different forms of living things in a given area or population.

• the dynamically stable ecological community representing the final stage of ecological succession.

• the alternation of the area and conditions in which an organism lives to that the organism can no longer live in them.

Multiple Choice

What type of succession would occur after a volcanic lava flow in an area?

• Primary Succession

• Secondary succession

• Biological succession

• Volcanic succession

Multiple Choice

How is primary succession different from secondary succession?

• Primary succession is faster and has pioneer species.

• Primary succession takes longer and starts in a new area without soil.

• Secondary succession has soil and starts with trees

• Secondary succession occurs after a disturbance and is slower that primary succession.

Multiple Choice

Which of these organisms may grow in the beginning of primary succession?

• shrubs and trees

• grass and shrubs

• lichen and moss

• grass and weeds

Multiple Choice

What continues to increase over time during ecological succession?

• biodiversity

• the area

• pioneer species

• the soil
