Succesion Level 2

Both primary and secondary succession begin with pioneer species that

• Change the area and make is safer for predatory organisms

• Invade the area so that new organisms cannot be established

• Modify the area to allow more larger and more complex organisms to appear

• use up all of the existing resources and prevent establishment of non-native organisms
