<span>Nitrogen and phosphorous are the most prevalent aquatic pollution and contribute heavily to the excessive growth of algae in aquatic environments called algae blooms. The nitrogen from the fertilizers is found in molecules called nitrates which are compounds of both oxygen and nitrogen. Phosphorous helps algae to absorb carbon dioxide. So when the phosphorous levels are high the algae absorbs more carbon dioxide, which allows for faster photosynthesis and faster glucose production which leads to faster growth. Although algae need both nitrogen and phosphorous to grow, when the levels are too high the algae grows faster than the ecosystem can sustain leading to oxygen deprivation for the other aquatic organisms.</span>
Answer:
<u> C) Each type of sensory receptor responds only to the stimulus that defines the receptor</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
Neurons, specialized cells within the nervous system. These help with coordinated movement ad communication within the body through the transmission of electrical signals.
Sensory receptors are highly specialized neurons. These are able to detect various chemical and physical stimuli, and are classified by their ability to detect certain stimuli such as:
- photoreceptors
- mechanoreceptors
- chemoreceptors
- thermoreceptors
Sensory receptors respond to certain intensities of stimuli, instead of one specific stimulus. e.g. Mechanoreceptors within the skin can respond to pressure changes due to touch, but may also detect sound due to specific vibrations.

Earth's tilt on its axis affects the way heat is distributed on Earth's surface.
The Earth orbits the sun every 365 ¼ days. The Earth is tilted 23.5 degrees on its axis, which affects the distribution of the sun’s energy across the surface of the planet. More tilt means more severe seasons, that is warmer summers and colder winters where as less tilt means less severe seasons, that is cooler summers and milder winters.
