An example of an invasive species is: A. the California condor. B. the blue whale. C. the water hyacinth. D. the Tiburon mariposa lily. E. Quinoa.

The correct answer is C. the water hyacinth.

Explanation:

Invasive species is the species that is not a native species and introduced in the ecosystem from outside. These invasive species are cause of concern for the existence of native species because they reproduce very fast and harm the ecosystem.

Water hyacinth is an invasive species that was native to South America which is spread in many places like in Egypt, congo, etc. Water hyacinth grows and spreads very fast in water bodies like lakes and covers the water bodies.

This causes depletion of sunlight and oxygen in water bodies which affect the native species of that water body adversely. Therefore the correct answer is C.
