Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Secondary succession usually occurs faster than primary succession because the substrate is already present. In primary succession, there is no soil and it needs to form. This process takes time, as pioneer species must colonize the area, they must die, and as this happens over and over again, soil forms.
