What is the limiting factor in oligotrophic lakes?

Biology
1 answer:
wlad13 [49]3 years ago

<span>Populations of algae and the animals that feed on them are lower in oligotrophic lakes because of low nutrient concentrations. Thus the water remains clear. The decay of the relatively small amount of organic matter in oligotrophic lakes does not completely deplete the hypolimnetic supply of dissolved oxygen. Therefore, lack of oxygen does not restrict animals from living in the hypolimnion of oligotrophic lakes. Lake trout, for example, require cold, well-oxygenated water and primarily live in the hypolimnion of oligotrophic lakes. Minnesota's oligotrophic lakes are found in the northeast region of the state, where infertile soils are covered with mixed conifer forests.</span>

Rosa listed some advantages and disadvantages of using renewable resources. Which best describes Rosa’s error?A. Wind does not e
Lynna [10]

Answer: Rosa's errors were options

A: Wind does not easily produce a lot of electricity.

C: Geothermal energy causes a lot wind pollution.

Explanation:

Wind Energy is the use of wind (kinetic energy) to provide mechanical energy and electricity through wind turbines. The wind turbines in a Wind farm ( made up of several wind turbines connected together) are then connected to electric power transmission network to generate electricity to households and grids.

Electricity is measured in Mega Watts (MW); Rosa is wrong because wind energy amounts for a significant percentage of electricity used in some developed worlds and mostly the European Union (EU) at a recorded 270 Giga Watts (GW). It is estimated that by 2020, wind energy will produce 50 percent of energy used by the EU.

Geothermal energy is the thermal energy (temperature of matter) which is gotten from energy generated and stored in the earth. Geothermal energy comes from radioactive decay of materials and the formation of earth.

Rosa is wrong, because Geothermal energy is environmental friendly and does not cause significant pollution. It does not involve fuel to harness its energy which in turn leads to stable electricity prices.

What causes the ocean waves that surface use for their sport ?
lapo4ka [179]
Wind blowing across the water creates friction and pulls the water along with it. This creates small waves. these waves then slowly build as they go farther until you get a large wave.
