What TWO factors do scientists track and monitor in all types of freshwater ecosystem?

Biology
1 answer:
ivolga24 [154]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A: light availability

B: nutrients

Explanation:

Both nutrients and light availability affect the primary productivity of the freshwater ecosystem, therefore, scientists study both factors to track associated changes. This is because photosynthesis is driven by sunlight and nutrients availability. It is suggested that the abundance of autotrophs (e.g. phytoplanktons) in an aquatic ecosystem increases as light and nutrients availability increase. Thus, there will be more food available for secondary and tertiary consumers to feed upon. Resultantly, the aquatic environment will turn a biodiversity hotspot where many species of living organisms start dwelling. Thus, scientists mainly ecologists would focus on these two parameters at first that lead to consideration of other parameters.

Contaminants that enter the groundwater may remain there for decades
il63 [147K]

Answer:

Groundwater moves very slowly through the aquifers at a rate of only inches per day. Some contaminants that reach the groundwater break down slowly or not at all, and move slowly with the water. Therefore, groundwater may contain these contaminants for many years.

Why are scientists who are searching for life on other planets studying Archaebacteria
Svetlanka [38]

On a very simple level, the answer should be that archaebacteria developped in climates, atmospherical conditions, temperatures, physical and chemical environments that were in some ways different from those that characterize Earth today. So, it is reasonable that planets with conditions like those of Earth when archaebacteria developped might bear some form of life similar to archaebacteria, or evolved from those organisms.

Is Scorpio a water sign?
gregori [183]
Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces are the water signs of the zodiac. Just like it sounds, water signs are very fluid and constantly wavering. They swim back and forth between reality and their imaginations. Those who are these signs constantly have a change in emotions and waver back and forth about their decisions.
