Does a lake with catfish have more dissolved oxygen than a lake with trout?
yes
Where would have more dissolved oxygen a lake containing catfish or one containing trout and why?
i think trout (even if oxygen may not be able to dissolve!) because catfish are able to extract more oxygen because they are larger!
Which has more dissolved oxygen a stream or a lake?
there is more dissolved oxygen present in a stream because the movement and the bubbling of the air allows more oxygen to be ingested
Which gas is on inhalation dissolved in blood hemoglobin more rapidly than oxygen?
Its an Oxygen.
Would you expect a fast moving mountain stream or the Mississippi River to have more dissolved oxygen?
I personally would expect the mountain stream to have more dissolved oxygen, because I know that oxygen dissolves better in cold water.
Which contain the greater amount of dissolved oxygen a lake in the spring or a lake in the summer?
. Temperature directly affects the solubility of oxygen in water. When the temperature of water increases, a portion of oxygen converts from liquid state to a gas. Thus the ability of water to maintain oxygen in dissolved state decreases with increasing temperature. As a result, colder water can potentially contain more dissolved oxygen than warm water. Therefore, a lake in spring contains greater amount of Dissolved Oxygen than the same lake in summer.
Does a lake or a river contain more dissolved oxygen?
the river would contain more dissolved oxygen because the water movements cause more oxygen to be produced...try looking at lab bench..it's like a prelab but it helps with the basic information
Can a wriggler breathe in dissolved oxygen?
Dissolved oxygen (DO) is the amount of oxygen that is present in the water. Worms, fish, crabs and other underwater animals use gills to get oxygen from the water. Scientists generally agree that the underwater creatures need dissolved oxygen concentrations of 5.0 mg/L or more to live and thrive
Does a turbulent or calm river carry more dissolved oxygen?
Yes, it does!
Which one of the following regions would you expect to find the largest amounts of dissolved oxygen in the ocean water?
In the polar regions, there is more dissolved oxygen in the ocean water. The cold water is able to hold more dissolved gases than warm water.
Does a lake containing only catfish contain more oxygen than lake with trout only?
not usually
What happens if there is too much oxygen in seawater?
Oxygen in the water is called "dissolved oxygen" because quite simply it is just that. The air naturally diffuses into the water and can reach equilibrium with the water. It is virtually impossible to get too much dissolved oxygen in the water because the excess will convert back to gas and bubble out of the water like so much soda water when you pour it out of the bottle. This said, there is no concern for too much dissolved oxygen in the water. Concern arises when dissolved oxygen levels get too low. When this happens more sensitive plants and animals become weak or die. As a side note, weather, temperature, and salinity all effect dissolved oxygen levels. Faster moving water contains more dissolved oxygen because it has more contact with the air than still water. Cold, fresh water holds more oxygen than warm or salty water. This would mean a cold, fast moving, fresh water stream or river would contain the highest amounts of dissolved oxygen, and the salinity of the ocean water would not be ideal for holding as much dissolved oxygen.
