Answered below

Step-by-step explanation:

Primary succession occurs in an environment that is not habitable and is newly formed. Pioneer organisms are organisms which start to colonize these environments for the first time.

Secondary succession on the other hand is an ecological succession taking place in an environment or ecosystem that was disrupted but is then recolonized by other organisms.
