Answer:

The mineral formed through evaporation.

Explanation:

Minerals are inorganic substances that occur naturally i.e. not man-made. These minerals are formed in different ways in nature. One of those ways is through EVAPORATION.

Since water dissolves a lot of substances including the particles of these minerals, the mineral components can be found in a dissolved state in water bodies e.g lakes, oceans etc. However, when heat increases and the water molecules evaporate (change to gas), the dissolved minerals in these water bodies crystallize out.

This is what happens when minerals form at the edge of a lake. The water from the lake evaporates leading to the formation of minerals.

Oceanic crust is constantly formed at mid-ocean ridges, where tectonic plates are tearing apart from each other. As magma that wells up from these rifts in Earth's surface cools, it becomes young oceanic crust. ... Just as oceanic crust is formed at mid-ocean ridges, it is destroyed in subduction zones.

An algal bloom has drained the lake of oxygen.

Explanation:

The possible cause of the fish death in the lake near the park is that an algal bloom has drained the lake of oxygen.

The green slime on top of the lake are the growing algae.

  • This condition is caused by eutrophication.
  • It occurs when nutrients are enriched in a water body causing the growth of algae.
  • Algae bloom causes the depletion of oxygen levels in the ocean.
  • They block off plants from producing oxygen and enriching water with it.
  • Fishes need oxygen for their life actions.
