How does the introduction of a new organism affect an ecosystem?

Explanation

Ecosystem does not describe independent systems, but interdependent ones. For this reason, a new addition to an ecosystem can have drastic effects on the overall form and function of that system. Although they are fragile, the introduction of a new organism does not guarantee failure, and although they are equipped to adapt, they are not capable of adapting to each and every foreign organism.

Most heart attacks occur as a result of coronary artery disease (CAD). CAD is the buildup over time of a material called plaque on the inner walls of the coronary arteries. Eventually, a section of plaque can break open, causing a blood clot to form at the site. A heart attack occurs if the clot becomes large enough to cut off most or all of the blood flow through the artery. The blocked blood flow prevents oxygen-rich blood from reaching the part of the heart muscle fed by the artery. The lack of oxygen damages the heart muscle. If the blockage isn’t treated quickly, the damaged heart muscle begins to die. Common signs that a person is having a heart attack are chest pain and upper body discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw, or stomach.

Gravity is a force of attraction that exists among all objects. Every object attracts every other object. Most objects are too small for their gravitational force to be measured or even noticed. Because the earth is large, its gravitational force is very strong. Gravity holds things on Earth's surface as it draws everything toward the center of the planet. Suppose that a very narrow tunnel has been drilled straight through Earth's center as shown in the diagram. What will the marble MOST LIKELY do if it is dropped into the tunnel?
