1. Intentionally taking species over to another place. Think smuggling animals over, you might think a squirrel is cute and bring it home from your trip to Paris back to the US. That squirrel can now be an invasive species. Don't be spiderman and take a banana on the plane!

2. Unintentionally carrying a species over. This can be on boat propellers, water tanks in boats, airplane wheels, etc. Getting animals stuck in transportation can become invasive.

Answer:

Human travel can lead to an increased risk of invasive species. Native species—both animals and plants—can stow away on cars, trains, boats, and airplanes that bring them to another ecosystem. Climate change also can play a role. Human activity causes increased levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, which in turn creates an increase in global temperatures. Because all species are adapted to a specific climate, climate changes can result in non-native species spreading into other ecosystems.

Can the environment and the heritage be used to describe evolution?
guapka [62]
Evolution is caused by genetic mutations that become favorable for survival.

For example if a bird has a mutation that gives it a longer beak and it lives in an environment in which a longer beak lets the bird catch more food- the longer beak becomes a favorable trait.

Now the bird is able to survive “better” thus it lives longer(due to its ability to catch more food). Because of this it reproduces more and passes the trait on to its offspring.
Overtime this mutation takes over the population of birds in the area.

In 3–5 sentences, explain the difference in good and bad atmospheric ozone and how each is distributed in Earth's atmosphere.
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The good ozone layer can be described as the stratosphere part of the atmosphere which protects the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiations from the Sun. The good ozone layer is however in a serious depleting condition due to human activities.

On the other hand, bad ozone layer is the part of the troposphere which is polluted. Emissions of toxic gases from human activities is the leading cause of this kind of pollution.

What are important roles of mosses
Savatey [412]

Answer: Mosses retain soil humidity and prevents its degradation, besides are habitat for little invertebrates.

Explanation: Mosses are non-vascular plants (they don't have conductive vessels as xylem and phloem) that live places as tree trunks, rocks, walls and soils. This habitats must be humids because mosses need water for nutrient transport,  because they don't have cuticle (prevents water lost) and for fertilization. Mosses are important for the ecosistems where they live because retain water in the soils thus prevent erosion and  harbor invertebrates as Tardigrades (water bears).
