DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Secondary succession is faster than the primary succession as the growth media or the soil is already present which allows growth of the plants. The other factors such as the presence of few species also contribute towards the faster rate of growth in the secondary succession.

Detailed explanation-2: -Secondary succession proceeds faster than primary succession, in part because soil survives the disturbance. As a result, new and surviving vegetation can regrow rapidly. Secondary succession often follows a wildfire, hurricane, or other natural disturbance.

Detailed explanation-3: -The stages are: Pioneer Species: These are the first species to begin colonizing the ecosystem. Intermediate Species: Once the pioneer species colonize the area, this species begins to emerge. Climax community: This is the stage at which a more stable ecosystem begins to emerge and homeostasis is achieved.
