The introduction of the Asian Clam in Lake George is an example of an Invasive Species.

Asian Clam are small in size, hardly 1.5 inches long. However, they can reproduce very quickly without the need for a partner. A single clam can give birth to hundreds of offspring in a single day without a mate.

Asian Clam is extremely unpleasant for most fresh water bodies since it excretes nutrients such as nitrogen.

This helps in the development of algae and gives off a foul stink.

Answer:

A. The temperatures are too high.

Explanation:

A desert is a region with extremes of temperatures and little to no rainfall.

Organic matter are the remains of organisms that have died. They are a very important component of soils.

Where temperatures are very extreme, there would be little to no life. Only special organisms that have evolved to adapt will survive such region.

Due to the low amount of plant and animal lives owing from the high temperature of deserts, little to no organic matter forms.
