No, nonnative species can be introduced both intentionally and unintentionally. Intentional introductions often occur for purposes such as agriculture, horticulture, or biocontrol, while unintentional introductions may happen through means like global trade, travel, or accidental transport. Both pathways can lead to significant ecological impacts, including competition with native species and disruption of local ecosystems.

What might cause exponential growth to occur only for a short period of time when a new species is introduced to a resourcefully environment?
Exponential growth in a newly introduced species can occur due to the absence of natural predators, abundant resources, and favorable environmental conditions. However, this growth is often short-lived because resource depletion, increased competition, and the emergence of diseases or predators can quickly limit the population. As the species consumes available resources, their growth rate slows, leading to a population crash or stabilization. Additionally, ecological balance may eventually re-establish, curbing further exponential expansion.
Which level of organization is often dominated by only a few species?
The community level of organization is often dominated by only a few species. These dominant species can have a significant impact on the structure and function of the community.
How are Invasive species introduced?
They have been around much longer than they have been invasive. They only became invasive when human activity transported them from their native environment to a different one without the predators that kept their populations under control. In this new environment their populations explode exponentially and they invade more and more space in that environment, pushing native species towards extinction in some cases.
How many ginkgo species trees are alive today?
There is only one living species of ginkgo tree today: Ginkgo biloba. Though there were many other species in the past, Ginkgo biloba is the only surviving member of the Ginkgoaceae family.
What are the only three living species of monotremes?

What are some introduced species able to overpopulated an area?
i only no 1 which is the rabbit
Name two ways in which non-native species can be introduced to a new environment?
Introduction implies not by nature or accident. In which case, you are left with man as the only means. Man has introduced alien species around the world only by 2 routes - on purpose (often for food), and accidentally, when they are either included in a cargo or they escape from captivity.
How was crustaceans copepods introduced to America?
They were always there. there are many copepod species found only in America so they probably didn't come from elsewhere.
Can you keep a corn snake with a type 1 NPWS reptile license in NSW?
I don't think you can keep any introduced species on a NPWS licence,doesn't it only apply to native species bred in captivity
What might cause exponential growth to occur only for a short period when a new species is introduced to a resourcefilled environment?
They are introduced either by accident or by people to get rid of another animal that is a problem. they can be brought on boats, planes, cars, and/or trains.
What kiwi species is extinct on the mainland?
The Little Spotted Kiwi, which is the smallest species of kiwi, has become extinct on New Zealand's mainland due to predation by introduced dogs, cats, stoats and pigs. This species is now found only on Kapiti Island and other offshore islands.
How are wombat enime?

What are wombat's predators?
Apart from human intrusion into their environment, their only natural predator is the dingo, but introduced species like dogs, cats and foxes can also hunt them for food.
What is the meaning of endemic animals?
Endemic species are native to a particular region and can only be found in that one area. Native species are naturally found in that region (i.e. they were not introduced there) but they are also found naturally occurring in other regions around the world.
