Approximately 20 years ago,a large fire burned through part of a national park.You are shown data that describe the species identified and enumerated over this 20 year period.These data show that some species colonized the land relatively fast.Those same species,however,are not present in the last 5 years of the data.Other species appear to maintain abundances throughout the 20 years.How would you characterize this process?
A) This is the process of primary succession B) This is the process of community succession C) This is because the community is a founder-controlled community D) This is a metapopulation patch and all of the species are part of a metapopulation.
