Solution

The correct answer is: spread widely and cause harm.

Introduced species are those that have been brought into an ecosystem where they are not native. Invasive species are a subset of introduced species that not only survive in their new environment, but also reproduce rapidly and spread widely, often causing harm to the ecosystem they invade. They can outcompete native species for resources, disrupt habitats, and introduce new diseases.
