Solution

The Asian carp that are currently in the Mississippi River system:

  • consist of different species that partition resources
  • lack natural predators

These are the two options that apply. Asian carp are made up of different species that partition resources, meaning they use different parts of the environment to reduce competition. They also lack natural predators in the Mississippi River system, which is one of the reasons they have become so invasive.

They do not grow and reproduce slowly; in fact, they grow and reproduce very quickly, which is another reason they are so invasive.

While some people might eat Asian carp, they are not generally considered a popular food source for Americans.
