Answer: Water pollution causes a decrease in fish populations in a river.

Explanation:

An ecosystem is a biotic community which includes abiotic (non-living) and biotic (living) components. The abiotic components includes water, sunlight, wind, soil and temperature whereas the biotic components includes the living beings such as plants, animals, microbes and other. The dynamic equilibrium of the ecosystem can be defined as the condition in which the abiotic factors of the ecosystem supports the life of the biotic factors without undergoing any drastic change which could negatively affect the population of living beings.

The river water is an abiotic factor which can be a habitat of large diversity of marine flora and fauna. The pollution of water could negative affect the population of the fish residing in the river. This will disturb the balance of ecosystem. As, in the ecosystem various species interact with one another to survive. Hence, the dynamic equilibrium will be changed.

1.each of several hierarchical levels in an ecosystem, comprising organisms that share the same function in the food chain and the same nutritional relationship to the primary sources of energy.

A scavenger is an organism that mostly consumes decaying biomass, such as meat or rotting plant material. Many scavengers are a type of carnivore, which is an organism that eats meat. While most carnivores hunt and kill their prey, scavengers usually consume animals that have either died of natural causes or been killed by another carnivore.

Scavengers are a part of the food web, a description of which organisms eat which other organisms in the wild. Organisms in the food web are grouped into trophic, or nutritional, levels. There are three trophic levels. Autotrophs, organisms that produce their own food, are the first trophic level. These include plants and algae. Herbivores, or organisms that consume plants and other autotrophs, are the second trophic level. Scavengers, other carnivores, and omnivores, organisms that consume both plants and animals, are the third trophic level.

Nitrogen is converted from atmospheric nitrogen (N2) into usable forms, such as NO2-, in a process known as fixation. The majority of nitrogen is fixed by bacteria, most of which are symbiotic with plants. Recently fixed ammonia is then converted to biologically useful forms by specialized bacteria.
