1. Sure does resemble bamboo... Giant Reed/Cane, [i]Arundo donax[/i] 2a. Three countries? Native to: Egypt, Turkey, Iraq?, 2b. US, Cuba, Japan? 3. Asexually through vegetative propagation (series of rhizomes underground) 4. Used as fuel, to make instruments, and construction; importation of mediterranean insects 5. Prefers wetlands and grows in areas with arsenic, lead, and cadmium; it is adapted to wildfires and photosynthesizes like many other plant species

Re: Invasive Species B/C
Hello,
I am a student at Torrey Hills Elementary. Since we have a fairly small team (and build events are especially popular) we did not do Invasive Species while it was a test event. If you guys had any information to offer, that would be great (as to the format of tests, etc...)
Thanks a lot!

2. Where is it native? (Looking for four seas and an ocean)
3. How did it get transported into non-native territory?
4. Where do they prefer to live?
5. How do they survive in non-native territory?
and 6. Where did they most notably invade in the US?
