Answer: Primary Succession

Step-by-step explanation:

Primary succession occurs when disturbances (such as glacial advances and retreats, volcanoes, earthquakes, landslides, scouring floods, or very hot-burning fires) remove the soil and organisms from a site, leaving only bare rock, gravel, silt, or sand.
