    C. Primary succession occurred, followed by several secondary successions.

    Explanation:

    Primary succession only occurs from bare rock and soil (caused by the volcano eruption in this case). When plant life suffered from forests fires, life was still left behind to continue growth, so these would be considered secondary successions.
