When the comb jelly Mnemiopsis leidyi was accidentally introduced into the Black Sea what eventually happened to the Black Sea ecosystem?
The accidental introduction of the comb jelly Mnemiopsis leidyi into the Black Sea led to dramatic ecological changes. This invasive species proliferated rapidly, consuming large quantities of zooplankton, which are essential for the diets of native fish and other marine organisms. As a result, fish populations declined significantly, disrupting the food web and leading to a decline in biodiversity. The overall ecosystem health deteriorated, impacting local fisheries and the livelihoods dependent on them.

What are species that migrate or are accidentally introduced into an ecosystem called?
Species that migrate are called migratory species, while species that are accidentally introduced into an ecosystem are called invasive species.
Plants introduced into new habitats in which they were not originally raised are?
Invasive species are different species, either plants or animals, which are purposefully or accidentally introduced into a new ecosystem. They can be good in some ways but bad in others because they usually don't have as many predators in the new ecosystem and can take over.
How are native species and introduced species related?
Eventually, all native species had to have been introduced sometime. So, native species are introduced species that have been in the ecosystem for a long time, and it and the other organisms have adapted to each other.

How can introduced species affect the health of an ecosystem?
adaptation improves the health of an ecosystem
What are to ways new species of organisms can be introduced to an ecosystem?
The two ways are to either bring them accidentally or intentionally... they would do it intentionally because they would want two animals to have sex and repopulate in that area so there would be more of them...
What is the species that is not native to a ecosystem?
It's an introduced species such as rabbits being introduced into Australia.
When an organism is first introduced into an ecosystem and has no predators what will it do?
In a new ecosystem with no predators, the organism may experience rapid population growth as there is nothing limiting its numbers. This can lead to competition for resources and potential overexploitation of the environment. Over time, the organism may evolve mechanisms to adapt to the new ecosystem and balance its population size.
