Answer 1

Answer:

The option which s correct is D) The water hydrilla will grow and will use resources needed other  plants in the pond.

Explanation:

As from the description mentioned, hydrilla have the capability to grow quickly in warm environments.

When hydrilla will be thrown in a pond, the conditions in the pond will be favourable for its growth. As a result, the population of the hydrilla plant will start to grow. The hydrilla plant may overpopulate the aquatic ecosystem. Due to this, the resources for other plants will become depleted and hence the aquatic community will become unstable.
