Biodiversity
Refers to to every living thing including plants, bacteria, animals, and humans.

Invasive Species
Nonnative organism (disease, parasite, plant, or animal) that can spread or expand its range and potentially cause harm to the environment, economy, or human health.

If a Blue Crab needs 3 milligrams of oxygen to survive, and the oxygen level dropped below three what would happen to the blue crabs? Would the population increase over time or decrease over time ?
Decrease

What is the percent of energy in the secondary consumer?
1 Percent.
Primary producers= 100% , Primary Consumers= 10% , Secondary Consumers= 1% ,Tertiary Consumers= .01%

An increase in pythons can come from?
More Rats, Frogs and Wolf will attract more snakes because there is more food.
Or, if Eagles were to be extinct, Pythons could no longer be eaten.

An Invasive Species, an organism that can cause harm, to the ecosystem. Will this cause the biodiversity and sustainability to increase or decrease over time?
Decrease
Less Biodiversity= Less Sustainability

If an environmental change occurred and something was removed from this food web which organism would cause the most instability(change of stability) ? 
The green plant, because the producers feeds the consumers, which feed the secondary, which feed the tertiary.
