Imported plants and animals in Hawaii have
inessss [21]

When a non-native or a foreign plant or animal is introduced in a new area, it affects the survival of the native animals that dwell there. The non-native plant or animal will compete with the native species for nutrients, water, space, food and shelter. Since the non-native animals will lack natural predators in the new habitat, they'll thrive in number. This uncontrolled competition of the non-native species with the native species will eventually leading to the death of the native species.

Answer:

The Golgi complex is compromised      

Explanation:  

The Golgi complex helps in the process of synthesis and packaging of proteins and lipids, especially those proteins that are for exportation. The organelle´s function is to manage the recently synthesized proteins, to transform them, and to export them to other places.

Different proteins are synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum and sent to the Golgi complex in vesicles, where it happens the final association of carbohydrates with proteins. Finally, protein is transported from the Golgi complex to its final destiny. Proteins destined to a certain place are packaged all together in the same vesicle and sent to the target organ. In the case of membrane proteins, they are packaged in vesicles and sent to the cell membrane where they get incrusted.

By being affected by the achondrogenesis 1a, the Golgi complex loses its functions and is incapable of finishing the protein synthesis and transport process, affecting other cells and their functions.
