Answer: A

Solution.

Growth of Lichens on barren rocks is followed by the growth of moss.
While technically moss is a plant, it lacks the parts of a plant that we are used to seeing.
Moss tends to grow in colonies, with several plants growing closely together, which creates the nice, smooth carpet-like appearance that makes moss gardens so beautiful.
An area is initially colonized by certain early-successional species such as Lichens,
Once new soil has formed in an area it gives way over time to mild-successional species, such as mosses and grasses
Hence, the correct option of this question is option A
