This startle reflex (aka moro reflex) is/was present in us as newborns.

It's triggered when there's an unexpected reaction. Example: Loud noise, sudden movement.

The baby will tighten his/her body, fling out arms, sort of like giving him/herself a hug. It happens because the baby is trying to protect itself from harm.

Eutrophication is a natural phenomena in which the algal growth occurs in the water body due to increase in concentration of the fertilizers and manures being drained from the agricultural land into water. This causes decrease in oxygen level in water, and the aquatic animals in water will not survive due to scarcity of water.

According to the given situation, the growth of algae in the neighboring ponds is due to the drainage of lawn fertilizers into the neighboring ponds being washed from the lawns. This causes algae to grow abundantly in ponds.
