What is the assumption of Clements in colonizing successional  species?

#SCPH06 I Botany
  1. possession of space is all-important and that the colonists that get there first determine subsequent community structure, such as facilitation
  2. Early colonists may exclude subsequent colonists such as
  3. Any species can start the succession, but the eventual climax community is reached in a somewhat orderly fashion, such as tolerance
  4. Each colonizing species made the environment a little different, such as facilitation

In a field experiment, autotrophs are provided a 14C-labelled carbon compound for photosynthesis. Radioactivity (14C) levels were then monitored at regular intervals in all the trophic levels. In which ecosystem is the radioactivity likely to be detected in longer time at the higher trophic level?
