Introduction

1. Explain the process of succession.

2. Describe how changes in an ecosystem can affect the organisms that live
there.

3. Describe the amount of time needed for complete ecosystem recovery.

1. Ecological succession, the process by which the structure of a biological community evolves over time. Two different types of succession—primary and secondary—have been distinguished.

2. Most plants and animals live in areas with very specific climate conditions, such as temperature and rainfall patterns, that enable them to thrive. Any change in the climate of an area can affect the plants and animals living there, as well as the makeup of the entire ecosystem.

3.
The analysis found that on average forest ecosystems can recover in 42 years, while in takes only about 10 years for the ocean bottom to recover. If an area has seen multiple, interactive disturbances, it can take on average 56 years for recovery.

Hope it helps!!!
