What is the weather of freshwater ecosystem?
Freshwater ecosystems can have varied weather conditions depending on the region. They can experience changes in temperature, precipitation, and sunlight throughout the year. Weather patterns like rainfall, snowfall, and temperature fluctuations can affect the water levels and overall health of freshwater ecosystems.
What is a coastal inlet or bay called where fresh water mixes with salt water?
A coastal inlet or bay where fresh water mixes with salt water is called an estuary. Estuaries are important ecosystems that support a diverse array of plant and animal species due to the mix of freshwater and saltwater conditions.
The organisms that zooplankton feed on in fresh water ecosystems are?
Zooplankton in fresh water ecosystems primarily feed on phytoplankton, bacteria, and organic detritus. They can also consume small algae, protozoa, and sometimes even other zooplankton. Their diet can vary depending on the specific species of zooplankton and the available food sources in their environment.
How are fresh water ecosystems and saltwater ecosystems the same?
Freshwater and saltwater ecosystems both support a variety of plant and animal species, and both play crucial roles in global nutrient cycling. Both ecosystems also face threats from pollution, climate change, and habitat destruction. Additionally, they both provide important ecosystem services, such as water purification and carbon sequestration.
What body of water requires animals to adapt to both salt and fresh water?
Estuaries are bodies of water where rivers meet the sea, creating a mix of saltwater and freshwater. Animals in these environments have to adapt to fluctuating salinity levels, making them capable of handling both salt and fresh water conditions. Examples of animals found in estuaries include crabs, oysters, and fish like salmon.

If an animal were to adapt to a salt marsh, they would have to adapt to the climate. It varies sometimes but mostly they would have to adapt to the water source. In a salt marsh, they have brachish water, which is a mixture of salt water and fresh water, and it usually leads out into another river or stream somewhere close by, but they would have to adapt to the water, which only some animals can.
Difference between fresh water and marine water?
Differences in fresh water and marine biomes are:Marine biomes have more salt than freshwater biomes.They have different animals; some animals cannot survive in saltwater conditions, so they are freshwater animals.Three fourths (3/4) of the water on earth is made up of marine biomes, while freshwater biomes are found inland as rivers, lakes, and ponds.
