When the temperature reaches 0˚C (32˚F), the top layer of the lake freezes and turns into ice. In solid form, water molecules are less dense and thus ice floats on the top of the lake.
This solid barrier prevents any wind-induced mixing as well as protects the relatively warm water underneath. Furthermore, light is also blocked so that photosynthesis is inhibited during this period. As the lake water is separated from the atmosphere, no direct oxygen diffusion occurs.
All these factors together causes a more even distribution of nutrients and gases in a lake in winter.
Answer:
★ A nonrenewable resource that developed from the remains of ancient plants that lived in large swamps millions of years ago is COAL
Explanation:
Hope you have a great day :)
Answer:
Algae as well as other plants naturally grow in water,but excess of these plants can be detrimental to organisms that live in water. In our homes and farms we use fertilizers to give our plants nutrients. Fertilizers contain nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. When it rains these fertilizers are washed off into the lakes,dams and rivers. These fertilizers accelerate the growth of algae, it grows uncontrollably across covering the lake. When the lake, dam or stream is covered with algae it blocks sunlight from entering the lake, thus plants under water cannot photosynthesize, thus oxygen is not created.
Explanation:
Answer:
They can cause the deprivation of nutrients, fluids, and metabolites. this may also cause pathological effects in their hosts such as pathogenic effects.
It is not C. I got it wrong. It is A water!
