Answer:

Nitrogen and phosphorus pollution which causes the increase in population of phytoplanktons lead to the process called euthrophication.

Explanation:

Eutrophication occurs when there is excessive level of phosphorus and nitrogen in the water that leads to the increase in population of phytoplanktons  or algal blooms. Algal blooms has a negative effect to the quality of water for it creates an environment suited for the growth of bacteria and thereby decreasing the supply of oxygen in water. This leads to death of fishes and aquatic life.

(Experiment 1: Diffusion through a liquid) Does the rate of diffusion correcspond with the molecular weight of the dye?
saveliy_v [14]
The answer to this question would be: False

The rate of diffusion should not be influenced by molecular weight. Big molecule might not be able to pass the membrane though.
Diffusion happens when there is a difference/gradient in the concentration of the molecules. If the difference is higher, then the diffusion rate will be increased.
