Afire hits an old forest with large, old trees. a large section of the forest is burnt down. over many years, new, immature trees replace the old ones. how can the new area be characterized?

If the old trees which were burn down are now replaced by new ones, the new area can be characterized as a SECONDARY FOREST. A secondary forest is a disrupted woodland area which has re-grown such that the effects of the disruption are no longer evident.

i won't lie i don't know so go online and ask google thats what i do

answer and explanation;

volcanic rocks are igneous rocks which form from lava, molten rock which has been thrust out of a volcano onto the surface of a rocky body such as an asteroid, planet, or dwarf planet.  

plutonic rocks are igneous rocks which form from subterranean chambers of molten rock or magma. plutonic rocks make up the base of continental crust as well as oceanic crust. their slow rate of formation causes them to be coarse grained since there is plenty of time for large crystals to form before the magma solidifies into rock.

the textural difference is that plutonic rocks are more coarse grained than volcanic rocks. plutonic rocks are coarse grained while volcanic are fine grained ; glassey or fragmental. since fine and coarse are adjectives the decision as to whether a rock is fine or coarse grained is generally made on the bases of whether or not the individual crystals can be seen in most if the rock.
