5. Bare rockBare rock breaks down and create soil Thin Layer of soil. A Decomposing layer start forming More decomposing layer and more mosit and fertile A very thick nutritious and fertile decomposing layer LichenMosses Grasses and shrubs Deciduous Trees Very tall coniferous trees

6. 2. Secondary Succession:  When an area already has soil, but has had a disturbance like a forest fire or clearcut.  Happens more quickly than primary because there are already seeds, insects, worms etc. in the soil.

7. Disturbances that Might Cause Secondary Succession Flooding – Leads to soil erosion, spread of pollutants and harmful bacteria associated with sewage – Climate change and global warming may be increasing incidents of flooding.

8. – A tsunami occurs when huge waves, from large earthquakes, flood coastal areas.

9. Drought Insect infestation - Most insects are helpful, but when normal conditions change, infestations can occur. - Example: Mountain Pine Beetle: Usually it is not a problem…it helps remove old trees, but….

10. …in our forests there are a lot of old trees, the climate is warming, and the bugs are not dying in the winter. Pine beetle has blue stain fungus in its mouthparts, which it transmits to the trees (symbiotic relationship). Fungus slows down resin production on trees so the beetle can eat the tree more easily.

11. Activity 3-1 B Part 1 Format: Hand in individually, but you are welcome to work with a partner Instruction: – Question (p118): recall the discussion on the similarity and difference between primary and secondary succession (1 point for similarity and 1 point for difference) – Step 1: Put the stages in order. You need to check with me before you continue. (5 points) – Step 2: Draw the illustration of the seven stages (1 point) – Step 3: Select one of the natural disturbance (page 119) – Step 4: Draw three sketches to illustrate the secondary succession (1 point)

12. Activity 3-1 B Part 2 Format: Hand in individually, but you are welcome to work with a partner Instruction: – Analyze: you need to write a paragraph that include and underline the following terms: pioneer organisms (0.5 point), changes (0.5 point), replaces (0.5 point), community (0.5 point), least biodiversity (0.5 point), most biodiversity (0.5 point), and mature community (0.5 point) (3.5 point in total) – Compare the biotic similarity (0.5 point), difference (0.5 point), abiotic similarity (0.5 point), and abiotic difference (0.5 point) (2 points in total) – Bonus mark (1 extra point) Put the stages in Before Class Activity in order
