Solution

The correct option is B Secondary
Secondary succession occurs in areas which already had living organisms thriving in that area. This occurs when a natural calamity or human intervention disturbs the number of living organisms in an area. As the community formed during primary succession are not in equilibrium anymore, the process of succession begins again.
