Answer 2

Answer:

The ferns growing in a forest that has been logged is an instance of secondary succession.

Explanation:

• Secondary succession is a type of ecological succession in which plants and animals recolonize a habitat following a large disturbance, such as a devastating flood, wildfire, landslide, lava flow, or human activity.
• The succession cycle is restarted, but not completely—soil and nutrients are still present.
• Thus, from the given options, 'ferns growing in a forest that has been logged' is the correct one.
