Answer:

Primary Succession

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the first step for an environment in terms of its life cycle. The first plants (pioneer plants to be specific) to inhabit this new island will help make a layer of soil that the Secondary Succession stage will not have to go through. The creating of soil takes THOUSANDS OF YEARS so this would be associated with Primary Succession.

Hope this helps :)
