Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Secondary succession occurs in areas where a disturbance has destroyed an existing community but left the soil intact, as would be the case after a forest fire. Primary succession, on the other hand, occurs in areas where there is no soil to begin with, such as on bare rock. A climax community is a stable community that has reached the final stage of ecological succession; it is not present immediately after a disturbance like a forest fire.
