Lichens that colonize bare rocks are an example of a pioneer species. In which environment would a pioneer species of lichen
be most successful?

Select one:
A:a grassland that has established itself on the site of an old farm

B:an old growth deciduous forest

C:a hillside that has been cleared by a volcanic eruption

D:a mountain meadow after a thunderstorm

C. A hillside that has been cleared by a volcanic eruption.

Explanation:

Pioneer species are hardy species which are the first to colonize barren environments or previously biodiverse steady-state ecosystems that have been disrupted, such as by fire or other natural disasters. Some lichens grow on rocks without soil, so may be among the first of life forms, and break down the rocks into soil for plants.

Hope this helps!

the most common energy conversion is from kinetic energy to potential energy, and then from potential energy to kinetic energy.

later on comes the heat energy, mechanical energy, and other energy conversions.

this energy conversion is so common that we can find it in our day to day lives as well.

- one of the most common energy conversions involves the changing of potential energy to kinetic energy or kinetic energy to potential energy
