An example of an invasive species is: A. the California condor. B. the blue whale. C. the water hyacinth. D. the Tiburon mariposa lily. E. Quinoa.

The correct answer is C. the water hyacinth.

Explanation:

Invasive species is the species that is not a native species and introduced in the ecosystem from outside. These invasive species are cause of concern for the existence of native species because they reproduce very fast and harm the ecosystem.

Water hyacinth is an invasive species that was native to South America which is spread in many places like in Egypt, congo, etc. Water hyacinth grows and spreads very fast in water bodies like lakes and covers the water bodies.

This causes depletion of sunlight and oxygen in water bodies which affect the native species of that water body adversely. Therefore the correct answer is C.

1. a host loses nutrients to a parasite

2. a parasite only benefits when the host is alive (cause if the host dies the parasite dies with it )

3. producers to consumers

4. the tapeworm is a parasite

5. they convert energy from the sun (photosynthesis)

6. sunflower-robin (i think im 80% sure)

7. producer

8. consumer

9. prey

10. fresh water snails ( cause the green algea is the producer and the snails are the primary consumers and the small fish consumer so is the big fish)

in 1859, charles darwin set out his theory of evolution by natural selection as an explanation for adaptation and speciation. he defined natural selection as the "principle by which each slight variation [of a trait], if useful, is preserved".
