Zebra mussels compete for plankton with other filter feeders, but that is not really why they are considered to be a problem. They tend to grow in great abundance where there is a water current that brings them their food faster, and such currents occur at the intake pipes that are put into the Great Lakes to get water, and the pipes then get clogged. So it is more of a problem with human engineering, than a problem affecting the food chain.
New Answer:
they will compete with netive shelfish and clams and hurt their populations

Experts anticipate that a incident is the least likely to occur but would have a great impact upon the environment and people?
A nuclear incident would have a great impact on the environment and people, but would be the least likely to occur.Several people answered "biological", but I would question the "least likely" aspect. A nuclear incident would have a greater effect on the environment compared to a biological incident.

How do zebra mussels affect the biodiversity of the Great Lakes?
they invade the habitat of other organisms living there and they start to overtake the lakes which decreases the biodiversity in the great lakes.
Can you reheat cooked frozen defrosted mussels?
You can reheat mussels in a great many ways. You can put them in the oven, in the microwave, or boil them.
