What is an advantage of keeping nonnative species out of ecosystems?
Nonnative species have no natural controls or competitors and will become more and more invasive. They can crowd out native species until they no longer exist.
In many areas humans are a nonnative species what happens when a nonnative species is introduced into a given environment?
When a nonnative species is introduced into a new environment, it can disrupt the existing ecological balance by outcompeting native species for resources, predating on them, or introducing diseases. This can lead to decline or extinction of native species, changes in ecosystem structure, and loss of biodiversity. In some cases, nonnative species can also have economic and health impacts on human populations.
How are invasive species transported?
Invasive species are often transported through human activities such as international trade, tourism, and unintentional hitchhiking on goods or vehicles. They can also spread through natural means like wind, water currents, or animals carrying their seeds or eggs to new areas. Once they are introduced to a new habitat, they can outcompete native species and disrupt ecosystems.
What is an invasive species best described as?
"Invasive Species" is a term used to describe a species that is taken from it's natural environment and introduced somewhere else. The species then cause harm to the new environment it was introduced in.
What term defines the kind of species that have been introduced to the ecosystem by man?
exotic species
Are non-native species and invasive species synonyms?
I don't think they would be synonymous. Nonnative species can live in a habitat without causing any adverse effects on that habitat, the nonnative species can become invasive if it causes any negative effects on the habitat. An example of a nonnative invasive species would be the python in the Florida swamp land. These hardy snakes are wreaking havoc by eating fish, birds, even alligator eggs and babies! The two words are often used interchangeably because it is often hard to find nonnative species that do not harm the environment they are introduced to, but it is possible and seen in some fish and bird introductions.

Are all introduced species invasive?
No, not all introduced species are invasive because they may have a natural predator that will eat them in their new environment. Also because the species can be biologically controlled, chemically controlled or mechanically controlled.
What are two factors that will determine whether a nonnative species becomes an invasive species?
An "invasive species" is defined as a species that is 1) non-native (or alien) to the ecosystem under consideration and 2) whose introduction causes or is likely to cause economic or environmental harm or harm to human health.
What are Populations of organisms such as kudzu and the fire ant that are introduced into a new habitat and reproduce very rapidly are known as species.?
Those are invasive species.
