Congrats! You completed this Invasive Species STEM Challenge and have successfully used your knowledge to help solve a problem that is faced every day. As you now know, many things factor into making such important decisions such as monetary, social, and ecological implications. You were able to successfully blend the knowledge you had of different aspects of ecology, engineering, and chemistry to make an educated decision that best reflects your knowledge of the whole of biology. As you have been learning, science and technology are not composed of individual topics that work independently of each other, but rather of intricate parts that work together in order for life to function as we know it. Yet again, congrats on a job well done!
