If the biochemical oxygen demand (bod) of a lake is very high, how will that affect the aquatic life in the lake? view available

hint(s) if the biochemical oxygen demand (bod) of a lake is very high, how will that affect the aquatic life in the lake? there will be more oxygen available for the aquatic life but much less oxygen available to the microbial populations. there will be less oxygen available for the aquatic life due to the microbial activity. there will be more oxygen available for the aquatic life due to the microbial activity. the bod does not have an impact on available oxygen in the lake.

The answer is ‘there will be less oxygen available for the aquatic life due to the microbial activity’. Too much microbial activity utilizes the oxygen dissolved in the water hence making the waters anoxic. This occurs especially after algae blooms. When the algae grow exponentially and later die, microbes that oxidize the organic matter for energy utilize the oxygen and cause dissolved oxygen in the water to deplete. This hence suffocates other aquatic life.

Current Air Temperature

The current air temperature plotted to the nearest whole degree Fahrenheit.

Dew Point Temperature

The dew point temperature plotted to the nearest whole degree Fahrenheit.

Sky Cover

The total amount of clouds in tenth. Plotted in the station circle according the the following table.

Wind Speed And Direction

The wind direction is plotted as the shaft of an arrow extending from the station circle toward the direction from which the wind is blowing. The wind speed is plotted as feathers and half-feathers representing 10 and 5 knots, on the shaft on the wind direction arrow. See the following table.

Visibility

The visibility plotted in fractions of a mile. For values above 10 miles, the values are omitted from the map.

Sea Level Pressure

The barometric pressure in tenths of millibars reduced to sea level. The initial 9 or 10 and the decimal points are omitted.

ex: plotted = 982, actual = 998.2 mb

ex: plotted = 012, actual = 1001.2 mb

Pressure Tendency

The pressure change in the past 3 hours preceding the observation. Plotted to the nearest tenth of a millibar. The plotted symbol characterizes the change in pressure according to the below chart.

They converted carbon dioxide to oxygen. The increased oxygen levels allowed for cellular respiration to occur instead of only glycolysis. The atmosphere became thinner, decreasing temperatures of the planet as well.
