Ecological succession

Step-by-step explanation:

An area with bare rock or a disturbed site with no vestige of its former community undergoes secondary succession while an area recovering from forest fire undergoes primary succession.

-False.

Ecological succession that takes place in an area which was formerly inhabited by living organism gots disturbed or barren due to some natural calamity is called secondary succession.

In the given question both the cases reflect that the area which was experiencing succession, was formerly inhabited by living communities. So in both the cases secondary succession is taking place.
