excess nitrogen from runoff would cause excess algae and plant growth, possibly affecting fish populations by decreasing the livable area of the water for fish. the excess algae bloom will deplete oxygen in the water causeing dead zones where there is not enough oxygen for fish to survive.

When excess fertilizer drains into a lake what may occur harming fish populations?
eutrophicationeutrophicationFertilizer in a lake helps algae grow. Up to a certain point, that is good. The algae turns carbon dioxide into oxygen and adds oxygen to the water. However, after that point, the algae covers the lake. Oxygen from the air can not get to deeper water. Dead algae falls to the bottom of the lake and decomposes. The process of decomposing uses up oxygen. The amount of oxygen in the lake drops below the point where fish can survive. Thus, over fertilization leads to a fish kill.
What is the excess interstitial fluid drains from body tissues?
Lymph.
How can eutrophication prevent?
we can prevent this by decreasing the use of fertilizer in plants. Excess use of fertilizer can lead to eutrophication.
What are stormwater drains desinged to do?
Prevent flooding and recycle excess water.
What effect does the amount of fertilizer have on the growth of a plant?
Insufficient fertilizer in plants can cause deficiency symptoms and slow plant growth. Excess fertilizer, meanwhile, can lead to salinity problems.

Is a fertilizer a pollutant?
Yes, fertilizer can be a pollutant.Specifically, fertilizer becomes a pollutant in terms of water. Excess applications can run off in rain events. They end up in streams where they cause nitrogen blooms.
What happens if excess fertilizer is applied without water to a plant?
you burn the plant and may even kill it
