Invasive species can either replace an organism from the ecosystem food web or replace it.

Explanation:

Invasive species are non-native species which can be animals, plants, micro-organisms, fish, etc. they are very much threatening to the native species and ecosystem food web.
Invasive species are spread by humans mostly, it happens unintentionally when people travel and all. Even climate change could be a reason for its spread.
So, it becomes threatening to native species because when you introduce it into a new ecosystem, it does not have a predator or control. It grows aggressively and takes over the resources for the native species.

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The species that develop in aquatic environments, need to be able to have an adequate locomotion and according to the hydrostatic pressure in the water, which this pressure has the opposite direction to gravity in terrestrial life.

Explanation:

Vertebrates that have a skeleton are accustomed to gravitational forces, and this bone structure is what allows adequate locomotion to perform movements as a function of the force of earth's gravity, in water the force of gravity has no effect, since that the hydrostatic force predominates, which the direction is opposite to the gravitational forces.

Amorphous bodies, with few solid structures, not bony, make them better adapt to movements in water masses that are promoted by hydrostatic forces.

Why do chicken eggs grow larger compared to other eggs?

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Chicken eggs grow larger compared to other eggs due to their relative body sizes.

Explanation:

Egg laying and the size of an egg is relative to the size of the organism. So an ostrich lays a really large egg because it is a larger animal and can handle that size. Whereas a bluebird lays a small egg because it is a small bird.
