Question

I WILL FAN AND MEDAL!!!!
Salvatore had grown tired of his fish tank and would like to get rid of the fish and contents of the tank in a nearby freshwater canal. Which argument presents the most devastating consequences of Salvatore's dumping of the tank? He may be introducing an invasive species that will damage the ecosystem He may be killing the creatures living in the tank. He may be destroying the opportunity for owning pets in the future. He may be polluting the lake with the contents of the tank.

Answer 1

The correct answer should be B. While it's true that he may be killing the fish in the tank, the problem comes from introducing an invasive species. This is actually a real problem that ecosystems face when people release foreign species into bodies of water.

The other choices:
A. Lol that's irrelevant
C. this is true, but damaging an ecosystem would be seen as more devastating than killing the foreign fish by releasing them
D. the small amount of water in the tank isn't going to have an impact on the body of water, and variables such as disease weren't mentioned, which would spring back as damage of the ecosystem anyway
