Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ecosystems that are disturbed by human activities are often vulnerable to invasive species because the disturbance can create opportunities for invasive species to establish and outcompete native species. Examples of human activities that can disturb ecosystems and create opportunities for invasive species include land-use changes (e.g., deforestation, agriculture, urbanization), introduction of non-native species (intentionally or accidentally), pollution, and climate change.
