What happens when lakes are acidified?

Lakes that have been acidified cannot support the same variety of life as healthy lakes. As a lake becomes more acidic, crayfish and clam populations are the first to disappear, then various types of fish. Many types of plankton-minute organisms that form the basis of the lake's food chain-are also affected. As fish stocks dwindle, so do populations of loons and other water birds that feed on them. The lakes, however, do not become totally dead. Some life forms actually benefit from the increased acidity. Lake-bottom plants and mosses, for instance, thrive in acid lakes. So do blackfly larvae.

Zielflug [23.3K]

The ribosomes on the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) most likely produces neuronal special proteins.

Explanation:

Conduction of electrical impulses by action potentials of neurons takes place through controlled flow of charged ions through neuronal membranes. This ion transfer is controlled by specialized neuronal channel proteins which are present in the neuronal cell membrane.  

These channel proteins allow for hydrophillic passage of ions and water molecules across the neuronal membranes.  

Ribosomes that are attached to the RER are involved in protein synthesis. They carry the code for proteins carried by the mRNA and translate into respective protein.

The RER along with some free ribosomes cluster together as Nissl bodies and are mainly involved in neuronal specialized proteins.
