Correct answer: Intentional release  

Asian carp are known to be an invasive species, they feed on snails and mussels. These grass carp alter the food web by altering the communities of plants, fish and invertebrates.

It is known to be the most damaging aquatic invasive species which causes a severe damage to wetlands and shallow lakes.

The carp is introduced to aquaculture facilities in Arkansas and Alabama to control the vegetation in a pond. They were widely stocked and their range was expanded by intentional releases.

Option D is correct.

What is meant by herbivory?

Herbivory may be a form of consumption in which an organism principally eats autotrophs such as plants, algae and photosynthesizing bacteria. More generally, organisms that prey on autotrophs in general are known as primary consumers. Herbivory is typically limited to animals that eat plants

What is the herbivory effect?

Herbivory can affect the expansion form of plants by terminating shoot growth and initiating branching and by affecting shoot-to-root ratios. Changes in survival, productivity, and growth of individual plant species affect vegetation structure and community dynasty.

<h3>Why is herbivory important?</h3>

Herbivory can have substantial impacts on habitat health, the structure and variety of plant and soil invertebrate communities and the productivity of economically important crops. The positive impact of herbivory is widely debated within the scientific literature.

Tumors of the parathyroid gland often result in secretion of excess parathyroid hormone. Considering the function of this hormon
Luda [366]

Answer:

Parathyroid hormone increases the level of calcium while calcitonin hormone  decreases the level of calcium in the blood.

Explanation:

Parathyroid hormone is a type of harmone which is responsible for balancing calcium in our body. When the calcium level lowers in our body, parathyroid hormone is secreted and calcium is absorbed from the bones and fullfilled the requirement of the body. If the tumor secreted calcitonin hormone instead of parathyroid hormone, the calcium level in the blood is lowered because it acts to the opposite of parathyroid hormone.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

invasive species are a problem both in anthropogenically altered and natural environments

Explanation:

An invasive species can be defined as a non-native species introduced into a new environment which then becomes abundant. Only in the US, it is believed that there are approximately 4,000 invasive species (some examples include the feral pigs, grey squirrels, European rabbits, etc.). In general, invasive species have a negative impact on the ecosystem, especially by displacing native species and thereby altering the trophic chain. In anthropogenically altered environments (anthromes), human beings are considered to be an invasive species.
