Environmental scientists David Pimentel, Rodolfo Zuniga, and Doug Morrison of Cornell University reviewed scientific estimates for the economic and ecological costs imposed by introduced and invasive species in the United States. They found that, as of 2005, approximately 50,000 species had been introduced in the United States and that these accountedfor over $120 billion in economic costs each year. These costs include direct losses and damage, as well as costs required to control the species. (The researchers did not quantify monetary estimates for losses of biodiversity, ecosystem services, and aesthetics, which they said would drive total costs several times higher.) Calculate values missing from the table to determine the number of introduced species of each type of organism and the annual cost that each imposes on our economy. Of the 50,000 species introduced into the UnitedStates, half are plants. Describe two ways in whichnon-native plants might be brought to a new location.How…
Which of the following is not a part of the red list criteria for "critically endangered" species? The population is expected to decline by 25% or more within 3 years or 1 generation. The species has a restricted range <100km2 at a single location and there is observed or predictive habitat loss, fragmentation, ecological imbalance or heavy commercial pollution. Extinction probably is greater than 50% within 10 years or 3 generations. The total population size is less than 200 mature individuals.
