The correct answers are B. They do not have natural predators to regulate their population growth and E. They compete with native organisms for resources.

Explanation:

Nonnative species include any species that does not belong to an ecosystem but was introduced to it. Nonnative species are considered are an important threat to biodiversity and native species because they usually disrupt the natural equilibrium in the ecosystem.

This usually occurs because nonnative species population grow rapidly due to the lack of natural predators; for example, Asian carps which are native from Asia and were taken to the U.S. are eaten by other fish and animals in their native ecosystem, but once they are introduced in another ecosystem their population increases due to lack of predators. Additionally, nonnative species often compete with native species for resources, this also happens with the Asian carp that competes for food such as snails or mussels with native species in the U.S.

metamorphism is the change of minerals or geologic texture (distinct arrangement of minerals) in pre-existing rocks (protoliths), without the protolith melting into liquid magma (a solid-state change). the change occurs primarily due to heat, pressure, and the introduction of chemically active fluids. i hoped i !

they absorb it i think

not sure
