Detailed explanation-1: -What is Secondary Succession? Secondary succession is an ecosystem that begins where there was a previous ecosystem present. In the case of secondary succession, an event such as a fire, tornado, volcanic eruption, flood, or other type of catastrophic event took place, destroying the existing ecosystem.
Detailed explanation-2: -In secondary succession, a previously occupied area is re-colonized following a disturbance that kills much or all of its community.
