Final answer:

The zebra mussel in the United States cannot be easily eliminated, was accidentally introduced to the Great Lakes, and is continuing to spread throughout the country.


Explanation:

The statement that is not true concerning the zebra mussel in the United States is:

  • can be eliminated from a river with minimal effort

The zebra mussel was accidentally introduced to the Great Lakes from Europe before 1988, and it is still spreading throughout the United States. While it has caused ecological and economic impacts, eradication efforts require substantial resources and are far from easy due to their reproductive capabilities and adaptability.
