TPO 26

The material discusses the concept of controlling the spread of the zebra mussel in North America. While the reading looks at the topic from one perspective, the listening challenges certain points outlined in the reading passage.

Firstly, the reading details specific points regarding this topic, namely the zebra mussel's invasion could no be stopped, because it happened when the mussels attached to a ship's bottom or survive in the ballast water. Next, the zebra mussel can dominate in a new habitat. Finally, zebra mussels have a negative impact on the fish population.

Conversely, the listening challenges the points; one specific contradiction is the zebra mussels spread by ships just in the past when people lacked the knowledge. However, now they could stop spreading by empty the fresh ballast water whish has lots of zebra mussels and refill it with ocean salty water, the salt will kill the mussels. In addition to that, the zebra mussels will dominate just in the beginning; on the other hand, latter birds could recognize that there is a new source of food. Birds could eat a lot of zebra mussels, and they could not be dominant anymore. One final point, zebra mussels have a negative impact on some fish populations, but they also have a positive influence on others. They could produce nutrients for the bottom fish-eating populations, and increase their numbers.
