Question

Invasive species often unbalance the ecosystems into which they are introduced because _______.
a. they did not co-evolve with the natural species and lack natural controls, like predators
b. they breed quickly and have the potential to overpopulate an area
c. they consume local resources
d. none of the above

Answer 1

a. they did not co-evolve with the natural species and lack natural controls, like predators

Answer 2

The correct answer is option A

Invasive species can be defined the species that are introduced intentionally or unintentionally in an environment.

These species might adopt the environment in which they are placed or might not get involved in the environment.

Invasive species often unbalance in the ecosystem because they did not co-evolve and fit into the ecosystem as they are not controlled by the natural control like predators.

This creates ecological imbalance.
