these algae cover the entire surface, thus disallows penetration of sunlight to lower parts of the waters and thus the submerged flora get affected.tyey also cause depletion of oxygen and the fishes are killed.Sometimes those fishes are replaced by species more resistant to the new conditions.
Thus eutrophication can be considered a form of pollution because it promotes plant growth, favoring certain species over others and forcing a change in species composition. eventually the entire ecosystem gets afftected....phytoplankton...zooplankton… and small water creatures....the birds feeding on them and all.Doies it afects the biodiversity to a very large extent.Sometimes the algae ecen give out toxins for the animals there.
Surveys showed that 54% of lakes in Asia are eutrophic; in Europe, 53%; in North America, 48%; in South America, 41%; and in Africa, 28%.
The main causes of eutrophication are:
What happens is that the ecosystem becomes rich with nutrients- therefore making more fertile soil to produce more food which will in turn produce more energy for the animals who eat them and so on.
When artificial or non - artificial substances, add fertilisers or sewage to a fresh water stream, lake or water body, increasing the amount of nutrients in the water.
I'm not sure, but I really need the answer.

What happens when an ecosystem undergoes eutrophication?
Eutrophication.

eutrophication
Dostinction between eutrophication and artificial eutrophication
destruction of eutrophication
eutrophication is of two types; natural and anthropogenic
eutrophication
how can eutrophication change a lake over time
eutrophication
No
we can prevent this by decreasing the use of fertilizer in plants. Excess use of fertilizer can lead to eutrophication.
Natural eutrophication isn't as much of a problem as artificial eutrophication. Artificial eutrophication is caused by humans (fertilizer from farms, lawns, gardens, etc. pesticides, herbicides, road chemicals, etc) these chemicals cause eutrophication to happen much faster than it should. If eutrophication happens faster, algal blooms (large floating mats of algae) form. When algal blooms decay, the bacteria that decays it depletes the oxygen in the lake or pond and the fish die of suffocation.
Eutrophication is not directly related with symbiosis since it involves the excessive amounts of phosphates and nitrates.
As eutrophication occurs, algae form a thick scum on the water. Hope I helped <3.
The rivers, streams and sea in a process called eutrophication. For more information search eutrophication on google.
