Which mechanisms of succession depend on one species arriving at a site before another species?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Facilitation is when one species improves the conditions for subsequent species to establish and grow, while inhibition is when one species prevents the establishment and growth of other species. In this case, both mechanisms rely on the arrival of a species before others. However, tolerance is when species with similar resource requirements can coexist without affecting each other, and it does not necessarily depend on arrival order. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
