The correct answer is (c) excessive application of fertilizer.

The term associated with the formation of algal bloom in pond due to excessive application of fertilizer is called as Eutrophication. The excessive amount of nitrogen and phosphorous in fertilizers helps in excessive growth of algal bloom which makes the pond look green.The fertilizers used in agriculture comes by run-off and gets mixed in the pond, supporting the growth of algae.

Hence, excessive application of fertilizers enhances the growth of algae which appears green in color.

In what ways can overpopulation be beneficial to differential reproductive success?
Reika [66]

Answer:

Differential reproduction is called the one that occurs as a result of the differences between the individuals that make up a society or sample, where it is those with comparative advantages who manage to reproduce, while those who do not have said advantages tend to die out. It is, in short, a practical application of Charles Darwin's theory of natural selection.

Thus, if there is an overpopulation of a certain species, a series of effects will occur (such as the scarcity of resources, the lack of living space, etc.) that will tend to gradually decrease the population to return to an ideal number of individuals. In this aspect, differential reproduction will be applied, being able to reproduce those that have comparative advantages over the rest, which will inevitably become extinct.
