Question

A large, old tree deep in the forest was knocked down in a windstorm. As it fell, it pushed four other somewhat smaller trees down with it, opening up quite a large patch of sunlight in an area that had been shady for many decades. What is most likely to happen in the sunny patch in terms of plant growth?

No plants will be able to grow in it until neighboring trees shade it more.

Seeds of sun-loving plants will germinate and grow in it.

Primary succession will start with very small plants or lichens.

Shade-loving plants will grow in it since it is in the forest.
