A. secondary succession
B. primary succession
C. a climax community
D. increased biodiversity
Answer (1)
The immediate result of clear-cutting a rainforest in Brazil is primarily secondary succession , where plant life begins to regrow in the disturbed area. Unlike primary succession which starts from scratch, secondary succession leverages existing soil and nutrients. This process eventually leads to the gradual return of biodiversity as ecosystems recover over time. ;
