What the consequences would be if the entire water surface was covered with water lilies​
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer: There can be a ton of damage done if water lilies overgrow.

Explanation:

Water lilies protect the organisms under the body of water and provide shade to the plants and organisms underneath. These are very important for organisms, as they also provide a place to rest. But if the entire water surface were to be covered with water lilies, this would be a major problem, because sunlight would have no way of reaching below the surface, and this would decrease oxygen levels for plants and organisms. Without air and sunlight, plants will start to die and organisms of the body of water will also start to die because of no air to breathe. Also, overgrowth of water lilies causes water stagnation and leads to excessive algae blooms. The stagnant water attracts insects like mosquitoes, cockroaches, termites, and more pests which can harm plants and organisms.
