Phosphorus or Nitrogen
All three are limiting nutrients for algae growth, along with light.
In biology, common limiting factor resources are environmental conditions that limit the growth, abundance, or distribution of an organism or a population of organisms in an ecosystem. :G-11.
sunlight/temp./amount of water/food availability/abundance of predators
It is a limiting nutrient limited by a single nutrient in the ecosystem, & the single goes very slow.
An algae bloom occurs.
An algae bloom begins to occur.
In Ecology, limiting nutrients are compounds that affect growth or success of a population. One such nutrient, found in marine ecosystems, is nitrogen. Nitrogen IS the limiting nutrient - it does not have one.
Phosphorus is the main limiting nutrient in freshwater environments, whereas nitrogen is the main limiting nutrient in saltwater environments.
a limiting nutrient
This is a substance that is limited in nutrient. An example is when a limiting nutrient is supplied in large amounts, it acts as a fertilizer causing algae to bloom.
the substance is a limiting factor, but im not sure at all__________________________________________orLimiting nutrient- single nutrient that either is scarce or cycles very slowly, limiting the growth of organisms in an ecosystem.
A limiting nutrient is when a substance is in short supply, and it is needed more.
growth rate
Wording of question is paradoxical, limiting can't be in excess .
Phosphorus or Nitrogen
When an ecosystem is limited by a single nutrient that is scarce or cycles very slowly, this substance is called a limiting nutrient.
