volcanic eruption leaves behind hardened lava flows

glacier begins to melt to move leaving exposed rock

What is the main difference between primary and secondary ecological succession?

Primary is the first stage and secondary is the second stage

Primary builds plant community; secondary builds animal community

Primary after natural disaster; secondary after disturbance

Which of the following is the correct order of ecological succession?

lichens-->grasses-->shrubs-->trees

grass--> shrubs-->lichens-->trees

lichens-->shrubs-->grass-->trees

grasses-->lichens-->shrubs-->trees

Primary succession occurs in an area that has:

been colonized but recently wiped out

What is the most important function of pioneer species?

To create soil and add nutrients to the environment

Why does primary succession take longer to reach climax community?

Because primary succession does not have soil

Because trees do not perform photosyntheses.

Because climax community is in a forrest.

Because primary succession already has soil

Which is the correct order in primary succession?

Rocks, Lichens & Mosses, Bushes & Shrubs, Trees

Lichens & Mosses, Rocks, Trees, Bushes & Shrubs

Trees, Bushes and Shrubs, Lichens & Mosses, Lichens & Mosses

Rocks, Grass, Trees, Bushes & Shrubs

Which of the following is true in a climax community?

They are stable for a long time, with the same species maintaining their population

the community will constantly evolve and change

if one species dies, a new species will fulfill the same role

it goes through a major change called "climax" every few hundred years
