What else can I help you with?
How does oxygen level vary in different forms of running water?
Water that has been exposed oxygen typically contains 2-3 millimole of oxygen.
Can you give me the different picture of bodies of water?
there are may different types of bodies of water
Why is oxygen important to bodies of water?
Aquatic organisms need oxygen to survive
Why is hypoxia more of a problem in the summer?
Hypoxia is a deficiency of oxygen in either the fish or water itself. Water naturally has a level of oxygen dissolved in itself. That is the oxygen that fish take in through the gills. This level of oxygen in clean pure water is about 8 ppm. In the summer more algae grows in the water due to favorable conditions. This algae consumes oxygen from the water. Also, in the summer the water temperature increases. Oxygen has a lower solubility in water as the temperature increases. Therefore the level of oxygen in the water will decrease slightly as the water temperature increases. These are just a few common reasons. Every water body is certainly different.
What will happen when water cycle is interropted?
The water level gets disrupted. The level of water in water bodies get changed.
Biochemical oxygen demand is a measure of?
Biochemical Oxygen Demand is the measure of the amount of oygen consumed by microorganisms in decomposing organic mattter in water bodies. BOD directly affects the amount of dissolved oxygen in water-bodies (i.e. rivers and streams). The greater the BOD, the more rapidly oxygen is depleted in the stream. SOURCE: Google.
What happen to the amount of oxygen present in the bodies of water if they get polluted?
Decrease
What happen to the amount of oxygen present in bodies of water if they get polluted?
Decrease
What will happen to the amount of oxygen present in the bodies of water if they will be polluted?
decrease
Why does the level of dissolved oxygen go down?
Dissolved oxygen levels can decrease due to processes like respiration by aquatic organisms, decomposition of organic matter, and insufficient mixing of water. Pollution, high temperatures, and excessive plant growth can also lead to decreases in dissolved oxygen levels in water bodies.
What does BOD and SOD mean in water?
BOD stands for Biochemical Oxygen Demand, which measures the amount of oxygen that microorganisms will consume while decomposing organic matter in water, indicating the level of organic pollution. SOD stands for Sediment Oxygen Demand, referring to the amount of oxygen consumed by the decomposition of organic matter in the sediments of water bodies. Both parameters are crucial for assessing water quality and the health of aquatic ecosystems.
What animal body part takes oxygen from the water?
Animals that breath water use gills to extract oxygen from the water and absorb it into the blood for distribution throughout their bodies.
