The body of water experiences eutrophication.
The process of eutrophication takes place primarily in ecosystems with gradual changing waters, mainly in deep lakes. In the depths of the lake, where deposition of dead algae takes place, the aerobic bacteria, which feeds on them proliferate that in turn consumes more amount of oxygen.
Though in the absence of enough circulation of water that is usually found in the case of deep lakes, the bottom of the lake is poorly oxygenated and the bacteria eventually deplete the oxygen found in the deep layers of water. Thus, they can no longer degrade all the dead organic matter and gets accumulated in the sediments. The lake is now considered to be aging.
The double fortification process involves adding iodine and iron to salt. It is a method used to fight micronutrient deficiencies in developing countries. Iron and iodine are two of the most important micronutrients involved in cognitive function, maternal and infant survival and human productivity. This is a cost-effective method that ensures that the population receives these nutrients without having to change their eating habits.
The CNS involves the brain and spinal cord and the PNS involves the body nerves.
Hello! Autotrophs make their own food (plants) and heterotrophs consume other organisms for energy (consumers.) Autotrophs use the process of photosynthesis to produce the oxygen as one of its products. Heterotrophs use the oxygen produced by the autotrophs to perform cellular respiration, which releases carbon dioxide that plants use; it's a balanced cycle. Hope this helps!
