A species that is brought to a place where it never lived is considered a native species.

True or False?

False - native means the species comes from there, so the opposite.
This is important because often new species entering a territory endanger the native species that have integrated well into the ecosystem. New species can upset those ecosystems.

False, I would assume if it has never lived there then it is not native to that environment :)

The answer is False; a native species is one that occurs naturally in a region, whereas a species brought to a new location is considered exotic or introduced. The introduction of exotic species can disrupt ecosystems and threaten native species. Understanding this distinction is vital for conservation efforts.
