The zebra mussel is an invasive species that decrease the carrying capacity of native species by competing for limited food resources. Invasive species are harmful to the homeostasis of an ecosystem.

The carrying capacity refers to the maximum population size of a species sustained by specific environmental conditions.

The factors that affect the carrying capacity include the availability of both biotic (e.g., food, presence of invasive species, etc) and abiotic (e.g., water, habitat) resources.

For example, Zebra mussels, and Quagga mussels are invasive species that can decrease the carrying capacity of native mussels by taking away limited food and attaching themselves to the native mussels.

Deer populations of the puget sound toefl answers
makvit [3.9K]

The true statement about white-tailed deer is that they no longer live in an area they were once found; option D.

<h3>What is true of the White-tailed deer of the Puget sound?</h3>

The passage describes two types of Deer found in the area called Puget Sound.

The passage indicates that the white-tailed deer together with the black-tailed deer were the once the two prevalent deer of the Puget Sound.

However, only the black-tailed deer are more common now as the white-tailed deer has been restricted to the low marshy areas and Islands of the Columbia river.

Although the reason for this decline was not given, but it can be inferred that environmental changes led to the decline of the white-tailed deer in the area of Puget sound.

When species of organisms are not able to fully adapt to changes in their environment, the population of that species of organism will reduce until they eventually are no more found in that environment.

In conclusion, white-tailed deer are no longer common in the Puget Sound.
