Explanation:

Ecological succession (the process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time) is affected by climate (e.g., temperature, precipitation patterns influence which species can thrive), soil (its composition, fertility, and structure affect plant growth and community development), and geography (e.g., location, topography can determine available resources and environmental conditions). So all of these factors (climate, soil, geography) impact succession.

Answer:

D. all of the above
