Answer:

Secondary succession

Step-by-step explanation:

During the Texas 11 wild fires, all species were killed and buried beneath the soil. However, the soil remains were preserved and had essential nutrients to allow generation of life on the return of favorable environmental conditions.

Secondary succession usually occurs when soil is present. Human caused devastations such as forest fires or storms causes secondary succession.
