What else can I help you with?
Fish in marine biome?
Fish are a part of the marine biome. There are two forms of marine biomes: fresh water biomes and salt water biomes.
What 2 water forms in Antarctica?
Any water in Antarctica forms into ice, either sea ice or fresh-water ice.
Is there fresh water in the Antarctic?
Yes.Most of the Antarctic continent is covered in frozen fresh water. It forms the polar ice cap.
What is the term used for water in an estuary?
An estuary is usually where the fresh water of a river meets the salty sea. The mixing of fresh and salt water forms brine.
What are two fresh water ecosystems?
flowing water and standing water
Which is the major fresh water source on the Earth?
It's actually the salty oceans, because the sun evaporates fresh water from the oceans; it forms into clouds; the clouds blow over the land and drop the fresh water as rain. It collects into rivers and lakes and dams and then into our houses. Fresh!
What happens when fresh water meets salty ocean water?
When fresh water meets salty ocean water, they do not mix immediately due to differences in density and salinity. Instead, a zone called a "halocline" forms where the two types of water meet but remain somewhat separate. Over time, the two waters gradually mix and dilute each other, creating a more uniform salinity level.
A term for water that is not salty?
non-salted water is most often referred to as "fresh water" or non-salinated water.
What are facts about fresh water lakes?
They are sources of water for cities, and provide habitat for fish, birds, and many forms of wildlife.
Describe two sources of fresh water?
The sources of fresh water include the glaciers, springs and rainfall.
Where do the larval forms of amphibians live?
Tadpoles will live in bodies of fresh water, big or small.
What develops in the water table before fresh wter mixes with denser salt water?
Before fresh water mixes with denser salt water, a zone of transition known as the freshwater-saltwater interface develops in the water table. This interface forms due to the differing densities of the two types of water, with fresh water typically sitting above salt water. The interaction creates a wedge-like formation where the lighter fresh water floats on top of the heavier salt water, leading to a dynamic equilibrium in coastal aquifers. This zone is crucial for understanding groundwater resources and managing water quality.
