TOPIC: Ecology AIM: What is ecological succession?

Why do ecosystems change? living things change ecosystems to make them more suitable -But by doing this they make it less suitable for themselves and more suitable for other organisms. Why do ecosystems change?

Ecological Succession When an existing community is slowly replaced by another until a stable one exists

Pioneer Organism 1st organisms Start succession Bacteria, fungi, lichens Pioneer Organism

Stable, mature community Forest Climax Community

Remains until catastrophic event (fire, flood, volcanic eruption…)  Successions starts again

What are some other examples of primary and secondary succession?
