Can you justify that Turbidity is not dangerous to the health?
Yes, it is not dangerous to our health. The Governement have made sure there is a very low turbidity rate in drinking water, so it won't affect you.
How much turbidity is bad in water?
Well, turbidity is the measurement of how much sediment is suspended in water. So high amounts of turbidity are not good, because it can suffocate the stream and block sunlight from the animals living in the stream.

Turbidity current density results from water mixing with what substance?
Turbidity refers to the cloudiness or haziness of a fluid. Turbidity current density results from water mixing with sediment particles.
What does high turbidity do to ocean water quality?
High turbidity in water means that there is suspended particles in the water, the higher the.turbidity, the more suspended particles and the lower the visibility (how far you can see through the water). High turbidity creates problems for plants that grow underwater, for.example seagrasses. These plants require sunlight to photosynthesise, high turbidity means that the ultraviolet rays from the suns light are unable or less able to reach the plant which means the plants growth will be slowed down or halted. If these plants die they impact heavily on the whole ecosystem because the plants in an ecosystem are a provider and without providers the consumers will all run out of food and either die or move on to a new area
What causes turbidity in rivers?
Turbidity in rivers is caused by the flowing water picking up sediment, which muddies the water.
How can insecticides get into well water?
Turbidity
What is an abiotic that affects a fresh water ecosystem?
temperature, current, and turbidity A+temperature, current, and turbidity
Is muddy water an example of water pollution?
Muddy water, more correctly called turbid water, contains particulate. These materials can add taste, odour, or toxic materials. They can also protect microorganisms from disinfectants. Most drinking water standards in use today have a limit on turbidity to address these concerns. Water with a turbidity level higher than the permitted level is regarded as polluted an unsuitable for consumption.
What does it mean when a scientist says a lake has high turbidity?
Turbidity is the cloudiness that is sometimes seen in water. It is caused by very small particles of clay, silt or organic material in the water. To say water is highly turbid means it is very cloudy. Turbidity is measured either in the lab by measuring how much light is decreased as it passes through a water sample or in the field by dropping a Secchi disk into the water and measuring how far down it can be seen.
How does water flow affect turbidity?
i have tested the to doing charts and graphs and when stream flow is fast the turbidity raises and and when the stream flow decreases so does the turbidity
What can you measure about water?
Temperature, volume, as well as a break down of contents including contaminants. BOD, COD, Turbidity, conductivity and many more. Please see related link on indicators of drinking water.
