Would you expect a shrub or dandelion (dispersed by wind-blown seed) to be a more likely pioneer plant species? why? you so much for ! means a lot !

Dandelions may appear quicker after harsh conditions and reproduce at a faster rate. However, both dandelions and shrubs are considered fast-growing plant species that can be categorized as pioneer species.

Explanation:

Secondary succession refers to the changes that take place in a disturbed habitat. Pioneer plant species are those that colonize new habitats after harsh climate conditions and that tend to reproduce at a fast rate.

According to researcher J.W. Darlling (2008), pioneer herbs and shrubs are species that tend to grow faster in comparison to other species, making them excellent pioneer species.

This occurs thanks to plants that are wind-pollinated, such as dandelions, have a higher chance to appear because, as it is a disturbed environment, there are no insects or other fauna present. In addition, shrubs are persistent species that are able to reproduce fast with limited soil availability but a bit slower in comparison to dandelions.
