How do invasive species disrupt non-native ecosystems?

Biology

Sloan [31]3 years ago

There are many ways they can disrupt their new environments.

They can often carry diseases or parasites that native species are unequipped for. A good example of this is cats being brought to Australia, a continent with no native felidae. Cats are one of the main carriers of toxoplasmosis and many species in Australia had not evolved alongside felidae and were relatively unequipped to handle these parasites if their immune system was vulnerable.


They can also cause issue simply because they are so different, and the animals and plants living I. These areas are simply unable to defend themselves or keep up as a result. Such as pigs (and other animals brought over by humans) eating dodo bird eggs (these birds roosted on the ground) and domestic cats overhunting for sport.

Hope this helps a bit! It's a pretty broad topic and definitely one worth researching even more

Monica [59]

Answer:

My guess would be H₂O/ water, since osmosis is a form of passive transport and I can't see the model the question references. Gases like O₂/ oxygen, CO₂/ carbon dioxide, and simple sugars like glucose can also pass through a cell membrane with passive transport though.

The roots of many clover plants produce structures that are filled with bacteria. The clover plants provide food and shelter for
ivanzaharov [21]

The type of relationship that occurs between the clover plants and the bacterias is called mutualism.

<h3>What is Mutualism?</h3>

Mutualism is an ecological relationship between individuals of different species, in which both are benefited by the interaction. As it occurs between individuals of different species, it is a so-called interspecific relationship, and, as it benefits all those involved, it is called a harmonic relationship.

In some species of Drosophila, there are genes on the Y chromosome that are not on the X chromosome. Imagine that a new allele a
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The Drosophila like the mammals possess X and Y chromosomes but as in males in which the XX is female and XY is male, the sex In Drosophila is not determined by the presence of Y chromosomes as a male determining factor are present on the autosomes.

However, the Y chromosome is important for males as they are involved in the formation of the sperms therefore the presence of Y is important. In the given question if the allele is present ion the Y chromosome which can reduce the size therefore the allele is passed on to the males only ans no females.

Thus, true is the correct answer.

the fly is female (Bridges 1921, 1925). Thus, XO Drosophila are sterile males. In flies, the Y chromosome is not involved in determining sex. Rather, it contains genes active in forming sperm in adults.
