During secondary succession, the topsoil generally undergoes an increase in carbon stock, nitrogen supply, an increase in the carbon/nitrogen ration and a decrease in acidity and density.
Secondary succession can happy after primary succession . Secondary can be independent but is not usually independent from primary succession.
Primary succession occurs in an area with no soil or organic matter, like an area after a volcanic eruption. Secondary succession occurs where there is already soil.

A good example of primary succession takes place after a volcano has a secondary succession is a process started by an event.
Secondary succession begins with pre-existing soil, as opposed to primary succession which starts on bare rock or sand with no soil present. In secondary succession, the soil has already been established by previous vegetation that has been disturbed or removed.

Secondary succession occurs on a previously disturbed or disrupted site where soil is already present, while primary succession begins in a newly formed or bare habitat without any soil. Primary succession starts from scratch with pioneer species, while secondary succession begins with existing seeds and organisms in the soil. Overall, primary succession takes longer to establish a mature ecosystem compared to secondary succession.

Primary succession would form a stable community faster because it begins with bare rock or soil and the process takes longer to establish stable conditions. In contrast, secondary succession starts with existing soil and vegetation, which accelerates the recovery process and helps establish stability sooner.
secondary succession , i had this question forr homework.
Primary succession is when development of an area that has not had a community begins. Secondary succession is when a community starts to rebuild itself after a disturbance(Like a hurricane or tornado). Hope this helps :D
