DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Because these habitats already have soil, secondary succession usually begins with small plants. Climax community can be reached more quickly in secondary succession due to established soil and presence of pioneer species.

Detailed explanation-2: -Secondary succession occurs faster and has different pioneer species than primary succession because soil is already present. The cause may be a natural disturbance such as a forest fire or farming.

Detailed explanation-3: -Secondary succession happens when a climax community or intermediate community is impacted by a disturbance. This restarts the cycle of succession, but not back to the beginning-soil and nutrients are still present.

Detailed explanation-4: -These conditions favor the development of communities much faster as a result the climax stage is reached much faster in a secondary succession when compared to primary succession.
