Question
which of the following can start a succession?
an out of control fire
driving by a forest
lack of disturbance
Ecological succession is the process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time. Disturbances like an out - of - control fire (a natural disturbance) can disrupt the existing community, removing organisms and altering the environment, which initiates succession. Driving by a forest does not impact the forest ecosystem enough to start succession. A lack of disturbance would maintain the existing community rather than starting succession.
