Nitrate acts as a poison by interfering with oxidative enzymes. oxidizing hemoglobin to methemoglobin, which cannot carry oxygen
xxMikexx [17]

Explanation:

Methemoglobin (metHb) is an oxidized derivative of hemoglobin in which heme iron is in the ferric (Fe3+) or oxidized state rather than the ferrous (Fe2+) or reduced state. Small amounts of methemoglobin normally are formed daily, associated with the release of oxygen from hemoglobin (auto-oxidation).

Methemoglobin cannot bind oxygen, which means it cannot carry oxygen to tissues. It is bluish chocolate-brown in color. In human blood a trace amount of methemoglobin is normally produced spontaneously, but when present in excess the blood becomes abnormally dark bluish brown. The NADH-dependent enzyme methemoglobin reductase (a type of diaphorase) is responsible for converting methemoglobin back to hemoglobin.

Normally one to two percent of a person's hemoglobin is methemoglobin; a higher percentage than this can be genetic or caused by exposure to various chemicals and depending on the level can cause health problems known as methemoglobinemia. A higher level of methemoglobin will tend to cause a pulse oximeter to read closer to 85% regardless of the true level of oxygen saturation. An abnormal increase of methemoglobin will increase the oxygen binding affinity of normal hemoglobin, resulting in a decreased unloading of oxygen to the tissues.

How could the problem of algal blooms be solved?
Luda [366]
Organic farming methods enable farmers and gardeners to prepare soil in such a way that nitrogen is added naturally through nitrogen-fixing bacteria rather than nitrogen having to be added through a synthetic fertilizer. This method of growing crops saves farmers money and alleviates the problems associated with fertilizer runoff
Farmers and gardeners should use other methods to provide crops with the nitrogen they need.


Algal blooms are due to the accumulation of algae, generally Cynabobacteria and Dinoflagellates, that grow due to excess nutrients in water.
If good algae grow, they do not accumulate in the waterbodies.

Diatom Algae are good algae.

Therefore if Diatoms are grown instead of Cyanobacteria and Dinoflagellates, there would be no accumulation and no problem of algal blooms.
