When exotic species are introduced into a new ecosystem, they often don't encounter the same factors that controlled the exotic species population or growth that was in the original ecosystem.

How can an exotic species threaten an ecosystem?
When exotic species are introduced into a new ecosystem, they often don't encounter the same factors that controlled the exotic species population or growth that was in the original ecosystem.
How can people introducing animals and plants into the ecosystem effect the ecosystem?
It can either help it or completely ruin it, you probably have/going to learn/learned it in seventh grade.If you introduce some animals, they will completely take over the habitat, such as Snakeheads in the Chesapeake bay. When they were introduced, they completely took over the environment by rapidly reproducing and eating all of the fish. This is called an invasive species. Invasive species are exotic animals that come from another country/state. Exotic species are completely fine, they are introduced and there is nothing wrong, they may even help the environment.Answered well enough?
What is a primary species?
A primary species is the first species to inhabit a new environment in the primary succession.
What is a gradual change in an ecosystem?
Changes over species over long periods of time is known as evolution.
How protecting one species could preserve an entire ecosystem?
An ecosystem s a complex web of interacting living things that have evolved to be in balance with one another. Remove one of the components and the whole ecosystem ceases to work (eg remove the predators and the herbivores numbers will grow unchecked until they have eaten ALL the plants). The activities of man frequently remove one species form ecosystems and protecting these means that the whole ecosystem benefits.

How do exotic species affect populations of native species?
When exotic species are introduced into an area these species can grow at exponential rate due to a lack of competitors and a lack of predators they may take over niches of native species and can eventually replace the native species completely
How can overpopulation of a species be a problem to an ecosystem?
Over population of a particular species will cause the food chain in that ecosystem to become unstable. Over population will also reduce the amount of producers within an ecosystem (depending if the over population is of a consumer) and will lead to the decrease of other animal species inhabiting the same ecosystem.
Over time a group of species in an ecosystem is replaced by a different group of species through?
Succession

How do you know an ecosystem is sustainable?
If the species continues to grow and reproduce offspring. If an ecosystem wasnt sustainable then is would become extinct over time.
What causes ecosystems to change over time?
Many things can cause change in ecosystem. These include habitat destruction for human builds, Introducing new species to a ecosystem that are not part of the food chain, Poaching, and even most pestacides can cause severe change to an ecosystem. Food chain disturbance example: Lionfish. They were somehow introduced by being let out of an aquarioum. These exotic fish are disturbing the food chain and causing many different other species of fish like grouper to have no food to eat.
What are orderly natural changes and species that take place in ecosystem communities over time?
succession
What is a gradual change in an ecosystem?
Changes over species over long periods of time is known as evolution.
What is the word for a species who take over another species habitat?
Ecosystem. Ecology, the study of plants and animals and how they interact with each other and their environment. :)
Why are wolves important for an ecosystem balance?
because if they went there, the population below it on the food chain would over grow and eat out the species below it and the whole ecosystem would colapse.
