What else can I help you with?
Which of these could you find in the benthic zone of a lake plankton turtles sediment or plants?
You would fine sediment in the benthic zone, or bottom, of a lake.
What determines whether the benthic zone in a lake will sustain photosynthesis?
The amount of light penetration into the benthic zone, nutrient availability, and the presence of photosynthetic organisms such as phytoplankton and aquatic plants are key factors that determine whether photosynthesis can occur in the benthic zone of a lake. If there is sufficient light and nutrients, photosynthesis can be sustained in the benthic zone.
Which lake zone would be absent in a very shallow lake?
limnetic zone
Which of the could you find in the benthic zone of a lake?
You would fine sediment in the benthic zone, or bottom, of a lake.
If you were plankton, which part of a lake would you likely live?
limnetic
What determines whether a benthic zone in a lake will sustain photosyn?
The amount of light penetrating the water column, nutrient availability, and presence of suitable substrate for plant attachment are key factors that determine whether a benthic zone in a lake will sustain photosynthesis. Additionally, water clarity and water depth can also influence the growth of benthic plants.
What type of food is eaten in each zone of a lake?
In the littoral Zone its Sea weed, Limnetic Zone is Bitts of Chloropholic Plants, Euphotic Zone its clams or shrips that flote around. & Benthic Zone you find pizza, and hotdogs and chips and and if you're really lucky you'll find a Mc,Chicken with a spongbob toy inside you're happymeal. :D
Which aquatic ecosystems are both littoral and benthic zones found?
The littoral zone of a lake is the near the shore area where sunlight penetrates all the way to the sediment and allows aquatic plants to grow. The benthic zone is the region at the lowest level of a body of a lake including the sediment surface and some sub-surface layers.
What is the difference between littoral zones and limnetic zones?
The littoral zone is that part of a sea, lake or river that is closest to the shore. In coastal environments, the littoral zone extends from the high water mark, which is rarely inundated, to shoreline areas that are permanently submerged. The limnetic zone is the well-lit, open surface waters in a lake, away from the shore. The vegetation of the littoral zone surrounds this expanse of open water. The limnetic zone is found just above the profundal zone. Most of a lake's photosynthesis takes place in the limnetic zone.
What area in a lake is likely to be aphotic?
Benthic zone
Which zone has the greatest concentration of plankton in a fresh water lake ecosystem?
Limnetic zone for sure.
What determines a benthic zone in a like will sustain photosynthesis?
how deep the lake is.
