The answer is mutation of genes.  The mutations were beneficial and gave the individuals of  the population advantage and hence increased their survival.

Operons afford the organism the opportunity to simultaneously regulate transcription of multiple genes, whose products are active in the same process.  Operons lead to the synthesis of groups of functionally related enzymes, usually from a single mRNA transcript hence makes regulation of the genes highly efficient.

erica [24]

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

Explain why cold-blooded organisms like reptiles have a higher rate of secondary productivity than warm-blooded mammals.
PIT_PIT [208]
Warm-blooded creatures, like mammals and birds, try to keep the inside of their bodies at a constant temperature. They do this by generating their own heat when they are in a cooler environment, and by cooling themselves when they are in a hotter environment. To generate heat, warm-blooded animals convert the food that they eat into energy. They have to eat a lot of food, compared with cold-blooded animals, to maintain a constant body temperature. Only a small amount of the food that a warm-blooded animal eats is converted into body mass. The rest is used to fuel a constant body temperature.
