a "native" species is a plant or animal that has an established and biologically stable existence in a specific geographic area.
an "invasive" species is a plant or animal that is introduced into a biologically stable geographic area and creates unbalanced competition for resources from the pre-existing native species present.
generally, the use of the word "invasive" implies an undesired biological scenario.

A native species is one that naturally occurs from a particular place and wasn't introduced. Like eucalyptus trees are native to Australia but were introduced in America. If these trees were to compete with other native flora (native American trees) to the point where they posed a threat to their survival, then they would become an invasive species (ie they take over and the native species struggles to survive)

Native species are good. And native is the self-explanitory. They ar native to the area, well theycan be kept in check by other native species. invasive species are bad because the are better fighters for the space, food, ect. all the stuff native species need to live. if native species die the invasive species change the enviroment and enventually take over the world. well sorta. untill a stronger species dominates them.

A native species is one that has grown in its natural environment. An invasive species is one that is growing outside of its natural environment. Invasive species can be bad, because most that are able to survive outside of their natural habitat,flourish, taking away nutrients and light / habitat for native species. Which may lead to doing away with them entirely.

Samantha! Why are you asking about our research questions? Why don't you just research about them? No offence. See you at school! Sorry I didn't answer your question.
