Lakes and ponds can go threw the process of succession more rapidly in two ways. First from an increase in runoff wich carries sediments like mud and sand into the pond or lake. Over time this added sediment will cause the lake to fill in becomming shalower and shalower until there is no longer a lake but a bog and eventually a field. The second way is from added nutrients like nitrate and phosphate polutants that will increase the growth of algae which will add to the detritus that sinks to the bottom of the pond or lake when it dies. This will also help to fill in the lake as described above. Algae and sediments also lower the amout of light that can reach submerged plants and can clog the gills of aquatic invertebrates.
What else can I help you with?
A community and all of the nonliving things that affect it?
An ecosystem is a community of living organisms in conjunction with the nonliving components of their environment. Energy, water, nitrogen and soil minerals are other essential abiotic components of an ecosystem.
Why does one change in the ecosystem often lead to other changes in the ecosystem?
The ecosystem is comprised of several organisms and how they relate to their environment. Each organism is connected to another in one way or another and that is why one change is bound to affect all organisms in the ecosystem.
What are the abiotic factors that could affect the stability of an ecosystem could include?
Abiotic factors that could affect the stability of an ecosystem include temperature, precipitation, soil quality, sunlight availability, and natural disasters like floods or wildfires. Changes in these factors can disrupt the balance of an ecosystem, leading to potential impacts on the organisms and their interactions within the ecosystem.
What collection of organisms and nonliving factors that affect the ocean is called a?
I believe it is a population.
What are three abiotic factors that the number and types of organisms in an ecosystem depend on?
Three abiotic factors that influence the number and types of organisms in an ecosystem are temperature, precipitation, and soil nutrients. These factors affect the physical environment and availability of resources, influencing the survival and distribution of different species within the ecosystem.
How pollution affects ecosystems?
Pollution can damage an ecosystem. Pollution can cause plants and other organisms to die, which will affect the circle of life in a particular ecosystem.
In what ways do humans affect ecosystems?
we affect the ecosystem by pollution
What is the effect of limiting factors in a local ecosystem?
They affect floridas ecosystem by not letting other organisms have their habitat
Can the different types of soil affect the organisms in that ecosystem?
biodiversity
How does the circulating water in a standing water ecosystem affect the ecosystem?
Circulating water in a standing water ecosystem can affect the ecosystem. This is because it can change the PH of the water killing the existing organisms.
How does the circulation water in a stand-water ecosystem affect the ecosystem?
Circulating water in a standing water ecosystem can affect the ecosystem. This is because it can change the PH of the water killing the existing organisms.
In Aboriginal teachings what is an Ecosystem?
All organisms in an area and abiotic things that affect them.
Soil water and minerals are examples of?
Abiotic factors in an ecosystem. They are non-living components that affect the living organisms within an ecosystem. These components are essential for the survival of plants and other organisms in the ecosystem.
Organisms within an ecosystem are what factors in that ecosystem?
Factors that influence organisms within an ecosystem include biotic factors (living organisms such as plants and animals), abiotic factors (non-living components such as temperature and water availability), and interactions among organisms (competition, predation, and symbiosis). These factors affect the distribution, abundance, and behavior of organisms within the ecosystem.
What are limiting factors in an ecosystem?
Temerature- can affect living organisms ; cause them to die or have to relocate
How do non living things affect the organisms?
Non-living things in an ecosystem, such as air, water, sunlight, and soil, provide essential resources for organisms to survive and thrive. Changes in these abiotic factors can impact the availability of food, shelter, and other resources, which can affect the health and distribution of organisms in an ecosystem. Additionally, non-living factors like pollution, climate change, and habitat destruction can have negative effects on organisms by disrupting their natural habitats and ecological balance.
What are some issues that affect the biomass pyramid?
Some issues that affect the biomass pyramid include overfishing, habitat destruction, climate change, pollution, and invasive species. These factors can disrupt the balance of the ecosystem, leading to changes in the abundance and distribution of organisms at different trophic levels.
