a: primary succession ~
b: brand new theater

What:

"Before a play can begin, you have to have a stage for the actors to perform. The first stage in primary succession is like the building of a brand new theater. It's when the ecological community first reaches the capability of being a “stage” for plant life. This can be a result of a recent volcanic eruption, rock exposure after glacial retreating, or sand accumulation at an ocean or lake's edge."
