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.

Microscopic plants called algae grow inside the top layer of sea ice in the Antarctic if enough sunlight reaches that layer of i
MrRa [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is: (A).

Explanation:

  • In the question, it is mentioned that the algae can grow under the conditions of "enough sunlight" and "enough nutrients".
  • Sunlight reaches the algae, by first falling on the surface made up of ice and snow and then refracting from there into the top layer of the ice where the algae grows.
  • However, the capability of both snow and ice to reflect sunlight is far more than that of refracting sunlight.
  • Therefore, the amount of light received by the algae is similar in absence or presence of the layer of snow on the top layer of ice.
  • However, on deposition of snow on the layer of the ice, the weight of the ice increases and it sinks below into sea water.
  • This allows more nutrient rich sea water to percolate into the ice and reach the algae.
  • The algae receive more nutrients from the sea water and hence is capable undergoing better metabolism and growth.
  • Hence, more algae are produced under such a situation.
