Question 13 • Science 7 B (M12 25/26 S2)
Introducing a nonnative species can cause the number of organisms in a habitat to increase at first. The newcomers and native species may compete for limited food, space, and other resources, so competition increases. Non-sustainable harvesting and mass extinction generally reduce populations, while ozone depletion does not directly add organisms to a habitat.
