Invasive plants can threaten wildlife diversity by overpopulating areas because there are no native animals that eat them. The National Parks Service (NPS) uses multiple techniques to reduce the effects of such invasive plants.

One technique that is used is called Early Detection and Rapid Response (EDRR). This technique employs volunteers and several other agencies to assist in identifying new non-native infestations. Which of the following best describes the benefit of implementing EDRR?
A. It allows for the invasive species to be further studied as to how to improve its resistance to disease.
B. It enables the invasive species to better compete for resources with the native organisms.
C. It helps control the infestation early to prevent needing more drastic techniques such as spraying chemicals.
D. It helps to determine which non-native predators would be best suited to introduce into the area.
