Algae. These pioneer species don't need much to survive, therefore, common pioneer species are bacterial organisms and fungi.

Answer from: KeiraDawn

Answer: Algae

Explanation:

Primary succession is the type of succession which occurs in an area which was previously unoccupied and thus, has no formed soiled substratum. A pioneer species is the one which are the first to colonise an area.Now, when the primary succession has to take place, species like orchids, pineapple trees and sugar cane cannot be pioneer species as they require a nutrient rich and well developed soil substratum for their growth.However, species like algae are very hardy and can begin their growth on nutrient deficient place with the available moisture. These can easily survive in a hostile environment and further pave the way for higher species and increase the diversity of a region.

Thus, in areas where lava no longer flows and primary succession has to take place, only algae can be the pioneer species.

Answer from: Quest

answer and explanation;

volcanic rocks are igneous rocks which form from lava, molten rock which has been thrust out of a volcano onto the surface of a rocky body such as an asteroid, planet, or dwarf planet.

plutonic rocks are igneous rocks which form from subterranean chambers of molten rock or magma. plutonic rocks make up the base of continental crust as well as oceanic crust. their slow rate of formation causes them to be coarse grained since there is plenty of time for large crystals to form before the magma solidifies into rock.

the textural difference is that plutonic rocks are more coarse grained than volcanic rocks. plutonic rocks are coarse grained while volcanic are fine grained ; glassey or fragmental. since fine and coarse are adjectives the decision as to whether a rock is fine or coarse grained is generally made on the bases of whether or not the individual crystals can be seen in most if the rock.
