Effects on Waterways
Fertilizers contain large amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus. When these chemicals runoff agricultural fields into waterways, they can lead to accelerated growth of aquatic plants. Nutrients from fertilizer runoff encourages the growth of nuisance algae through the process of eutrophication.

Answer: the cfu/g Gram-negative bacteria in the fecal sample is C = 3.0 × 10^3

Explanation:

We know that; Gram negative bacteria looks  pale reddish in color under a light microscope from Gram staining.

therefore

There are 30 red bacterial colonies counted.

1 mL of from tube 1 was removed and added to tube with 99 mL saline (tube 2) dilution is 1/100.

transferred volume  into the plate is 1 mL.

Now, we have to determine the cfu/g Gram-negative bacteria in the fecal sample

Formula to calculate CFU/g bacteria in fecal sample is expressed as;

C = n/(s×d )

where C is concentration (CFU/g) , n is number of colonies , s is volume transferred to plate , d is dilution factor.

so we substitute

C = 30 / ((1/100) × 1)

C = 30 / 0.01

C = 3000

C = 3.0 × 10^3

THERFERE, the cfu/g Gram-negative bacteria in the fecal sample is C = 3.0 × 10^3
