What oxygen level should your aquarium be?
The size of the aquarium and the number of fish living in the aquarium determine the amount of oxygen that is needed. The temperature of the water also plays an important role to determine oxygen needs of fish. If the water is above 80 degrees, the need for oxygen increases.
What are three examples of abiotic factors in the Chicago river?
An Abiotic factor is something that is non living such as oxygen. Some examples of Abiotic factors in an estuary are. Water Oxygen Nitrogen Carbon Salt
What factor would be least likely to limit the types of animals that can survive in an aquatic habitat?
the level of oxygen dissolved in the water.
How does oxygen get into water for fish to breathe?
Oxygen partially dissolves in water. Respiratory systems of aquatic animals are adapted to get this dissolved oxygen. They have gills for respiration.
Do oysters need oxygen to breathe?
fishes take in water and remove oxygen from it.....thats how they breathe....
What is name of the process in the water that makes an oxygen?
Electrolysis separates water into its original components: oxygen and hydrogen.
How can pollution affect the level of oxygen in water?
The concentration of oxygen in waters decreases.
What would have to do to control the oxygen level in aquarium water?
You can control the oxygen through aeration
How does oxygen level vary in different forms of running water?
Water that has been exposed oxygen typically contains 2-3 millimole of oxygen.
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 is the level of dissolved oxygen in distilled water?
It should be 0.
Does wood decompose in water?
It may or may not, it depends mostly on the level of oxygen in the water. Oxygen depleted water actually preserves wood almost completely.
What is water when it is broken into hydrogen and oxygen?
When separated into its component parts, hydrogen and oxygen, the original water no longer exists.
How does oxygen level vary in different bodies of water?
The oxygen level varies in different bodies of water because some bodies of water are warmer than others therefore,.. the more hot the less oxygen because the particles will begin to die as the water gets hotter but this is how it becomes a compressed gas ...
Which change in a sample of pond water could indicate that heterotropic microbes were active?
A lowering of the dissolved oxygen would be an indication of that happening and that would be the primary thing that i would look for
Why does the increased level of nutrients in the water affect the aquatic animals?
Increased level of nutrients result in growth of algae in the water.These algae use up all the oxygen in water and form a layer on the water not allowing oxygen to enter.Therefore the aquatic animals die because they don't get oxygen.
Why does rotting water plants cause a decrease in the oxygen level?
The bacteria which decompose the plants respire - they take in oxygen from the water, and release CO2. Also, the plants die, so no longer photosynthesise, so no longer convert CO2 into 0". Therefore, rotting water plants cause a decrease in the oxygen level of the water.
