The given question is incomplete, the complete question is:

A new mountain lake just formed by a retreating glacier. The lake starts out with little nutrients or life, but over time it begins to support a variety of species.

Which type of succession does this describe?

secondary

primary

island

aquatic

The correct answer is primary succession.

Explanation:

The development of an ecosystem in a region where no form or sign of life existed before is termed as primary succession. In the mentioned case, a glacier at the start did not support any form of life, however, it started producing a mountain lake where some form of life started to appear gradually. With time, the development of the pioneer community will take place, which will eventually get transformed into a climax community.

In comparison, a kind of succession that takes place in the regions where life prevailed before but got destroyed or eliminated due to natural disasters or human applications is termed secondary succession.

well first you need the sample of the temperature and gas level. i couldnt write a hypothesis unless i had some data. i think temperature changes will effect volumes of gas because gas changed into a solid or liquid at specific temperatures.
