1. Fewer microorganisms will grow on the surface of the lake
2. More areas of hypoxia will occur in the lake.
3. More contaminated water will reach the lake.
4. Less sunlight will reach aquatic plants in the lake.

1. removing the top layer of an ore-bearing mountain to access oil and gas resources
2. using water and chemicals at high pressure to open up fissures to access oil and gas resources
3. using water and chemicals at high pressure to open up fissures to access mineral resources

(1) Fewer microorganisms will grow on the surface of the lake if iron compounds are added to a lake with an overabundance of nutrients. Hence, option 1 is correct.

(2) Fracking means using water and chemicals at high pressure to open up fissures to access oil and gas resources. Hence, option 2 is correct.

<h3>What are microorganisms?</h3>

An organism that can be seen only through a microscope.

Iron is a natural capping agent which can enhance sediment P binding capacity, thus reducing P availability and shifting a lake from an algal to a macrophyte dominated state. Iron could, however, also impose toxic effects on the biota.

Fracking is the injection of a fluid at high pressure into an underground rock formation to open fissures and allow trapped gas or crude oil to flow through a pipe to a wellhead at the surface.

This technique is used in natural gas and petroleum production.

1) Fewer microorganisms will grow on the surface of the lake if iron compounds are added to a lake with an overabundance of nutrients. Hence, option 1 is correct.

(2) Fracking means using water and chemicals at high pressure to open up fissures to access oil and gas resources. Hence, option 2 is correct

Methane (CH4) undergoes combustion. Which products form? please help will give brainliest if correct
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

B. CO₂ and H₂O.

Explanation:

When any organic substance undergoes complete combustion, it produces carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O).

In the case of methane, the balanced reaction is:

  • CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

With the above information in mind the correct answer is option B. CO₂ and H₂O.

When the combustion is incomplete, carbon monoxide (CO) is produced as well.
