Best Answer

There are many answers to this question.

Warm water contains less oxygen so some aquatic organisms that get their oxygen directly from the water may not be able to survive, other organisms may grow rapidly in higher temperatures. This overgrowth could further deplete the available oxygen creating additional losses.

If the temperature is high enough animals that didn't succumb to low oxygen levels may die of metabolic problems.

Power plants that discharge warm water into rivers have a negative effect on aquatic life This is because the higher water temperature?

It decreases the dissolved oxygen in the river water Answer: Thermal (warmer water) pollution:* Lowers the oxygen saturation point of the water making it less desirable for non tolerant species (Carp flourish, trout don't) * Promotes the growth of slimes and molds * Changes the rate of decomposition * Prevents breeding of some fish species * Changes the benthic population * Promotes overwintering of some bird species

Water cannot be absorbed through the surface of a leaf


How are living organisms dependent on the soil?

FoodShelterHumans and all living organisms depend on plants that utilize nutrients in the soil along with sunshine to create nectar and produce edible fruits, roots, stems and leaves, all of which feed the living organisms on the planet directly or indirectly. WaterAnimals, insects, birds and other creatures burrow into the soil for shelter. Under a warm blanket of soil, many of Earth's inhabitants raise their young. Soil provides warmth and moisture for hatching eggs. It acts as an insulating barrier and provides dry shelter. Man uses soil to build homes and other structures.Depressions in the landscape hold water for living organisms to drink. Ponds often have clay soils that prevent water loss. Depressions capture water during rainy periods, and the soil holds moisture like a sponge for long periods of time.

How could warm water act as a pollutant?

Warm water can disrupt ecosystems:by killing fish which are acclimatized to cooler water (this is the same reason that pet shops tell you to slowly introduce new fish into your tank by adjusting the water temperatureby encouraging the growth of warm water organisms (bacteria, trash fish and weeds)by reducing the dissolved oxygen content f the waterby dissolving more pollutants into the waterby making chemical pollutants more active
