The more water moves the more it has a big surface of contact with the air with is rich in oxygen and therefore oxygenates the water.
Also the movement makes that the deeper waters have a chance to get to the surface, exposing to the air part of water that would not be exposed otherwise.

How does water get dissolved oxygen in it?
water gets dissolved into water by rushing water or rapids if there are trees or brush in the water it will help disolve the oxygen in to the water if there is a waterfall located somewhere in the stream or river that will desolve a lot of oxygen
Does a lake or a river contain more dissolved oxygen?
the river would contain more dissolved oxygen because the water movements cause more oxygen to be produced...try looking at lab bench..it's like a prelab but it helps with the basic information
What would happen to the amount of dissolved oxygen in the river if the river is polluted?
the amount of dissolved oxygen would decrease.
Who will have more dissolved oxygen ariver with rapids or a quiet lake?
River with rapids because the more water moves the more it has a big surface of contact with air which is rich in oxygen and therefore oxygenates the water. Also the movement makes that deeper water get a chance to get to the surface, exposing to the air part of water that wouldn't be exposed otherwise.
What will happen in a river with low dissolved oxygen content?
fish will die
Does a turbulent or calm river carry more dissolved oxygen?
Yes, it does!
What are the applications of dissolved oxygen in civil engineering?
Civil engineers often have to do dissolved oxygen tests on lakes, streams, and other bodes of water. This is to monitor human effects on the river.

Would you expect a fast moving mountain stream or the Mississippi River to have more dissolved oxygen?
I personally would expect the mountain stream to have more dissolved oxygen, because I know that oxygen dissolves better in cold water.
When was Thunder River Rapids Ride created?
