Well, all fertilizers are chemical, as everything is made of 'chemicals', but I assume you mean synthetic fertilizers manufactured by chemical industry. Overuse of these does indeed cause problems. The reason is that, unlike most organic fertilizers, the plant growth enhancing compounds in synthetic fertilizers are in a free form and soluble in ground water. This means if there is too much for plants to absorb immediately, rain will wash the fertilizers away. They end up in streams and ponds and lakes, where the algae take them up and grow rapidly, forming a bloom over the surface. This prevents light from reaching other water plants which then die and rot, depleting the oxygen supply so the animal life dies too. This is called eutrophication. Another problem is that nitrates can get into the water supplies we use for drinking, which can be dangerous to humans, especially babies.
It depends on exactly how much the farmer used. If he used a lot over the right amount, then the crops will probably die. If its just a little, then they'll be okay.
Usually when you use too much fertilizer on plants, it may burn the plant you're trying to grow.
If too much fertilizer got in to water supply, the osmotic potential of this water will increase and the plant surrounded by such water will find it difficult to absorb water.

lack of water and fertilizer would not change the growth
ANSWER:If you took vitamins only and drink water, what would happen? You would die. Your body and the grass needs water to survive. Water is the most basic need other than oxygen, or carbon dioxide in the case of plants. The other problem is if you add fertilizer to a plant, it needs water to transfer it to its cells. Without this delivery device, the fertilizer is useless and can actually harm the plant instead of helping it.
too much water and or fertilizer,
A giant nuclear explosion would happen and we would all die.
Add again water.
Chuck Norris would die
we would have no food left :)
Nothing... bad question!
If land was not regulated, then there could be more pollution. Polluted areas would cause the water supply to be unusable and undrinkable if runoff from chemical sources enter into the supply.
it will cause aquatic animals to suffocate by draining out all the oxygen in the water
supply will increase.
Many people would die from diseases
the food chain would die/end
The fertilizer could cause an algal bloom, which would deplete oxygen in the water and likely make the water toxic. Fish and animals that drink the water are likely to die.
Only if there is a break in the supply line or the impeller housing would this happen.
It would go down because there is no water left.
lack of water and fertilizer would not change the growth
