The answer is invasive species.


Invasive species are species that are not native to specific ecosystem, but they have a capability to spread widely through the ecosystem, This way they can threaten native species of the ecosystem or cause environmental harm. 

<span>After being introduced into the Black Sea, they greatly affect local ecosystem. In the new area, they have no natural predators and are able to spread. If they spread beyond the area they are introduced, they become invasive species which can overgrow native biotopes and are a great threat to the local biodiversity. This could lead to the extinction of some native species.</span>

zepelin [54]
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone, luteinizing hormone (LH for short) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH for short).

When this hormone reaches the pituitary gland, it releases two more hormones into the bloodstream: the LH and FSH. Although boys and girls do have these hormones, it depends on their sexual orientation the way these hormones work.
