Answer:

A.  Non-native species can have both positive and negative effects.

Explanation:

Zebra mussels have invaded new ecosystems located far from its native place. By killing the native mussels of the system, they exert huge adverse impact on the new ecosystem. Also, they have the positive impact of filtering the water. However, even non-native species can have both positive and negative effects, the positive effects do not outweigh the numerous negative effects of the invading species.
