Identify the incorrect statement (s) describing Primary and Secondary succession: Select one or more: a. primary succession is the process in which species gradually or rapidly establish a new ecosystem, following a drastic stochastic environmental disturbance event b. species establish new ecosystems based upon defined ecological assembly rules, where new niches are occupied and organized across trophic levels, based on the genetic heterozygosity and unique adaptations of individuals c. volcanic eruptions, fires and floods can lead to succession events, with remaining survivors becoming the founding populations of the altered habitats and landscapes which remain d. through primary succession, mosses and detritivores convert new landscapes, followed by annual, perennial grasses, flowering plants, and finally, trees which provide habitat for detritivores, producers and consumers to enrich a diverse ecosystem

Reuben Mcclure · Answer 1

option A and B

Explanation:

A secondary succession is the process in which species gradually or rapidly establish a new ecosystem, following a drastic stochastic environmental disturbance event.

Primary succession differs from secondary succession, wherein plants and animals first colonize a barren, lifeless habitat.
