Answer:

eutrophication

Explanation:

Eutrophication refers to a situation in which the aquatic environment becomes excessively enriched with nutrients. This leads to algal blooms in aquatic habitats such as lakes. These nutrients come from Fertilisers used in farming, which find their way into water bodies through run-off thereby increasing nutrient levels.

Excess nutrients causes phytoplankton to grow and reproduce at an alarming rate resulting in algal blooms. This bloom disrupts the balance in the ecosystem leading to many problems.

The algae may end up using all the oxygen in the water, causing oxygen shortage for aquatic life. Some of the algae may die, their decay may lead to further oxygen depletion. As oxygen is depleted, aquatic organisms may also begin to die.

What were the effects of the increase in White Collar<br> Jobs?
scoundrel [369]
White-collar workers were introduced into the realm of modern social science at the end of the nineteenth century. The starting point was twofold: (1) the notion of a growing number of occupations, employments, and functions that shared many traits of the working class while at the same time differing in important aspects from manual workers as well as from the higher social strata; and (2) the exceptional rapid growth of these categories in the decades around the turn of the century, which even outdid that of the manual workers.

What Are the three ways that a sedimentary rock can be changed and what is the result of each change ?
Tresset [83]
1.Heat and/or pressure 2. Weathering and erosion 3.melting. The heat and pressure will make the sedimentary rock into a metamorphic rock. The melting will make it into magma which will then cool and become igneous rock. The weathering and erosion will make the rock break down into small parts (sediments) which will stay like that for a long time and eventually become a sedimentary rock once again.
