An increase in sedimentation or a decrease in water levels would likely lead to terrestrial succession in a pond, as these changes can provide more favorable conditions for terrestrial plant growth. This would result in the gradual transformation of the pond into a terrestrial ecosystem.

If plants had not evolved to live on land, it is likely that terrestrial ecosystems would have remained dominated by non-plant organisms such as fungi, bacteria, and algae. This would have drastically altered the development of terrestrial ecosystems and likely impacted the evolution of animals that rely on plants for food and habitat.

The inner or terrestrial planet that we could most likely live on is Earth. Mars would be a far distant second.
Primary succession. Follow the answer to "What is secondary succession?".
Yes, a newly formed volcanic island would be a likely candidate for primary succession. As the island lacks existing plant and animal life, new species would gradually colonize the barren landscape in a predictable sequence, eventually leading to the development of a mature ecosystem over time.
The climax stage of succession would most likely experience the least variation in daily temperature. This is because the climax community has a mature and stable ecosystem where the environmental conditions are relatively constant and well-balanced, leading to minimal fluctuations in temperature.
