9. Surtsey is an island located south of Iceland that was formed by a volcanic eruption. Surtsey first
appeared in the 1960s. Ecologists documented the stages of succession as found below:
A. Dwarf willow trees begin to grow on the island.
B. Mosses, lichens, and plants that are adapted to be dispersed by the wind or sea and able to grow in
the sand appear on the island.
C. Vascular plants included sea lyme grass and oyster plants appear.
D. The lava and sand formation that resulted from the eruption are barren with few nutrients.

1: most common garden plants prefer loam — soils with a balance of different-sized mineral particles (approximately 40% sand, 40% silt, and 20% clay) with ample organic matter and pore space. however, some plants grow better in sandy soils, while others are well-adapted to clay soils.

2: available water capacity is the maximum amount of plant available water a soil can provide. it is an indicator of a soil's ability to retain water and make it sufficiently available for plant use. available water capacity is the water held in soil between its field capacity and permanent wilting point.

3: it is the same for all living things (plants and animals). it also includes very tiny organisms that our eyes cannot see. they are known as microorganisms, and include viruses, bacteria and fungi.
