What is the scientific name for the goldfish and the classification for the goldfish?
The scientific name for goldfish is Carassius auratus and it is from the classification Cyprinidae. The characteristics of the common goldfish are originally an olive-brown colouration but more often black, gold, bronze, orange, red, pink, and white or combinations of these colors are found. Goldfish resemble common carp but lack barbels on upper jaw. Goldfish are omnivorous and will eat a wide range of vegetation and insects. Dried flake or pellet foods provide a good basic diet, but Goldfish will appreciate supplements of fresh vegetables and protein rich foods such as bloodworm. Live food, when available, will be eagerly accepted.
What is an example of a non-native invasive species?
A non-native invasive species refers to any species that originates abroad but is introduced to a new territory, resulting in ecological, environmental and/or economic destruction. Often, the introduction of the invasive species is the result of human travel or transport which allows a species to "hitch a ride" to new areas they would not have otherwise visited. A perfect example in the US is the Zebra Mussel, a small mussel native to Eurasia. However, it is believed that the Zebra Mussel migrated to the United States in the ballast water of ships (which subsequently released them into US waterways). Since their introduction in the late 1980's, the Zebra Mussel has been responsible for clogging power plant water intake systems, blocking pipelines, changing water quality and threatening the existence of several species of native clams and mussels. (In their defense, they are also very effective at filtering pollutants out of the water which, in some areas, has increased the populations of native fish species.)
