vekshin1
The introduction of the Asian Clam in Lake George is an example of an Invasive Species.

Asian Clam are small in size, hardly 1.5 inches long. However, they can reproduce very quickly without the need for a partner. A single clam can give birth to hundreds of offspring in a single day without a mate.

Asian Clam is extremely unpleasant for most fresh water bodies since it excretes nutrients such as nitrogen.

This helps in the development of algae and gives off a foul stink.

lawyer [7]

The correct answer is - 1) inverted pyramid, with a narrow base representing a small number of young individuals.

The populations that are decreasing are usually population in countries that are highly developed. The conditions for living are excellent, the medical care on high level, life expectancy very high, but the birth rates very low.

In this type of conditions, there's smaller and smaller number of young individuals, with the middle aged population being much bigger, and the older population being constantly on the rise. This will give the age-structure histogram a reverse shape than what it is supposed to have, it will be similar in appearance like a inverted pyramid, meaning that the population is aging and that it will be constantly on a decline in the future.
