The Hawaiian Islands are home to many endangered species. Why do you think the Hawaii Department of Agriculture is so strict abo
ut allowing nonnative species onto the islands?. a.. It is so strict because a foreign species could mate with a native species and create a new species.. b.. It is so strict because a foreign species could become a problem for tourism.. c.. It is so strict because a foreign species could compete with a native species and drive it to extinction.. d.. It is so strict because a foreign species may not be able to survive in a new environment.
The correct answer is C. It is so strict because a foreign species could compete with a native species and drive it to extinction.
The Hawaiian islands are one of the geographical isolated islands which faces the problem of the invasive species affecting the biodiversity of the island negatively.
The foreign species is equipped better to survive in the Hawaiian habitat and competes with the native species for the resources and food. The interaction and competition of the foreign species in the Hawaiian environment and habitat limits the resources for native species which increases the chance of the native species getting endangered.
The Hawaii Invasive Species Council along with other bodies such as department of agriculture, department of business and economic development, private and other government and non-government bodies have taken initiatives towards eradication of invasive species by strict laws.
In my opinion, the correct answer among the choices given is option C. The Hawaii Department of Agriculture is so strict about allowing nonnativespecies onto the islands <span>because a foreign species could compete with a native species and drive it to extinction.</span>
One of the negative impacts of eutrophication and increased algal growth is a loss of available oxygen, known as hypoxia. These anoxic conditions can kill fish and other aquatic organisms such as amphibians.
In cellular respiration it is a positive term, a process vital to life. But photorespiration is an entirely negative term because it represents a severe loss to the process of using light energy in photosynthetic organisms to fix carbon for subsequent carbohydrate synthesis.
