Question

which event would most likely lead to secondary succession? the formation of a new island a forest fire the retreat of a glacier a lava flow

Explanation:

Secondary succession occurs in an area that has had a previous community and still has soil and some remaining organisms. A forest fire destroys the existing vegetation but leaves the soil intact, allowing for new growth and secondary succession. Formation of a new island, retreat of a glacier, and lava flow create new surfaces with no pre - existing soil or community, leading to primary succession.

B. a forest fire
