Houses have been built around a small retention pond, increasing the fertilizer runoff into the pond. This has led to algal bloo

ms in the pond which periodically reduce the amount of dissolved oxygen available in the water. What will be the most likely long-term effect on the fish population living in the pond if the situation with the fertilizer does not change?
A. The fish population will grow as more offspring are born that can take advantage of the new conditions.

B. The population will be replaced by a different species of fish that consumes algae for food.

C. The fish population will learn to survive with less oxygen and more algae in the water.

D. The population will evolve, leaving only those genetically equipped to deal with low oxygen levels.

It is mentioned that energy utilized for exercises comes from the breakdown of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Please explain the
harkovskaia [24]

Answer & explanation:

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a molecule made up of <u>one adenosine molecule</u> and <u>three phosphate radicals</u> (P) capable of storing small amounts of energy (from the breakdown of food) in their chemical bonds, acting as a temporary energy container.

ATP is directly linked to cell metabolic processes such as cellular respiration and photosynthesis. When cells need energy, for the sodium-potassium pump, for example, the ATP molecule breaks down.

This breakdown is made by hydrolysis (ATP breaks using water), so the bond between the phosphate group 2 and the phosphate group 3 breaks down, leaving one Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) molecule, which has two phosphate radicals.

At the end of the process the energy that kept the phosphate groups bound is released and used in processes such as <u>stretching and shortening of muscle fibers</u>, nerve impulses and hormonal regulation. These processes utilize the active energy released by ATP hydrolysis.

ATP - ADP conversion is the fundamental way to get energy because the cell cannot use the glucose molecule directly.
