The correct answer is D. Abduction

Explanation:

In medicine, the movement of limbs or bones is classified into different types including abduction, adduction, extension, and circumduction. In this way, adduction occurs when the bone or limb moves towards the middle line of the body or center of it while abduction occurs if the movement makes the bone or limb be away from the center of the body. On the other hand, extension occurs when a movement makes the angle of body parts wider and circumduction occurs when the movement is circular. Considering this, the type of movement in which a bone moves away from the midline of the body is the abduction.

For a introduced species to be invasive species, there needs to be certain characteristics of the species.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Invasive species are the species that belong to some other place and are introduced to a new place by means of any human interference. But many species are often transferred from one place to another. But not all of them remain there as an invasive species. This is because for being an invasive species, they need to have certain characteristics:

A. They need to have high rate of reproduction.

B. They need to have short dormancy periods.

C. They need to have high generic variability.

D. They need to be polyphagous and gregarious.

E. They need to have high dispersal rate and great adaptability.

F. They need to have phenotypic plasticity.

Answer:

clustered distribution (clumped)

Explanation:

In ecology, species distribution refers to the way in which a biological taxon is spatially arranged in a particular geographic area. Species patterns of distribution are fundamental to analyze ecological systems. The main distribution patterns include 1-clustered (clumped) distribution, 2-uniformed distribution, and 3-randomized distribution. The clustered distribution is the most common type of dispersion pattern in nature and occurs when species tend to form small sets of three or more individuals clustered together. A clustered distribution may be due, for example, when resources (e.g., water) are not evenly distributed in the environment (unequal distribution of the resources). Moreover, a uniform distribution occurs organisms keep a uniform, constant, distance from each other (e.g., due to competition for limited resources), while a randomized distribution occurs when individuals are randomly distributed because resources are not limited.
