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.

Bob is color blind, but he knows that neither of his parents were color blind. He is wondering if he received the gene for color

guajiro [1.7K]

The color blindness would be from his mother, since it is located in the X chromosome, and since his father is not color blind, and he only has one X chromosome, it could not come from him, but since the trait is recessive in women (meaning that it is covered up by a capital X) it means his mother could have the trait in one of her chromosomes, but not the other. Unfortunately Bob got the short end of the stick and got the chromosome with color blindness, and since men only have one X chromosome, it is dominant in men, leaving Bob with color blindness.
