Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:  C. A species is brought to a new environment where it has no predators.

Explanation:

According to the <em>Green Invaders</em> article, invasive species are plant species that people brought with them when they moved to the United States because they wanted to make the vegetation more aesthetically pleasing.

The article mentioned how this could be bad for the ecosystem however because most insects are plant specific which means that they only feed on certain plants and without those plants, they could die off.

The insects are the predators for plants therefore and if they are unable to eat these new invasive plant species then that means that these plant species are now in an environment where they have no predators.

How did the crusades impact Europe, its people, and its institutions?
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Third, the crusading movement impacted internal European development in a few important ways. The movement helped both to militarize the medieval western Church and to sustain criticism of that militarization. It arguably helped solidify the pope’s control over the Church and made certain financial innovations central to Church operations. And it both reflected and influenced devotional trends. For example, while there was some dedication to St. George from the early Middle Ages, the intensity of that devotion soared in Europe after he reportedly intervened miraculously at the Battle of Antioch in 1098, during the First Crusade.
