If algae were to overproduce, it could lead to a decrease in oxygen levels in the water and block sunlight from reaching other aquatic plants, ultimately affecting the organisms that depend on oxygen and sunlight for survival, such as fish, aquatic plants, and other marine life. This could disrupt the balance of the ecosystem and potentially lead to a decline in biodiversity.

If a massive volcanic eruption resulted in a huge amount of soot and ash filling the sky which organisms' manner of obtaining nutrition would be affected first?

Organisms that rely on photosynthesis, such as plants and algae, would be affected first as the ash and soot blocking the sun would limit their ability to produce food. This would have a cascading effect on other organisms in the food chain that depend on these primary producers for nutrition.


If algae disappeared from earth's waters how would other living things be affected?

it will die


What would algae be in the food chain?

Algae are microscopic organisms that grows in the water. Algae is eaten by fish or krill and other tiny creatures. In a food chain it would be considered a producer because it harnesses the sun's energy to create food that is consumed by other organisms.


What type of organisms would you expect to see in an area recently after a volcano eruption?

Mosses and algae


How would organisms in the rain forest be directly affected?

its a window on wheels


Which organisms' manner of obtaining nutrition would be affected first?

Plantae:)


What would be the first organism affected by overfertilization of farm and land with nutrient run-off and why?

The first organism affected would be the algae living in local water-ways. The fertilizer run-off causes an algal bloom. This algal bloom uses increased amount of oxygen taken from the water therefore the first organism negatively affected would be organisms in the water surviving on oxygen. More than likely it would be the earthworms under the rows of crops; they would be affected almost immediately after the water hits the ground.


If algae suddenly disappeared from Earth's Waters what would happen to living things on earth?

The ecosystem would be severely disrupted as algae plays a crucial role in the food chain by providing food and oxygen to many marine organisms. This would lead to a decline in populations of species that rely on algae for survival, which could have cascading effects on other organisms throughout the ecosystem. Ultimately, it could lead to widespread ecological imbalances and potentially impact human activities such as fishing and tourism.


Will algae turn to fungi if eaten while stomach has an over growth of candida?

No, algae will not turn into fungi if eaten, even if the stomach has an overgrowth of candida. Algae and fungi are different organisms with distinct characteristics and biological pathways. The overgrowth of candida in the stomach is a separate issue that would need to be addressed through appropriate medical or dietary interventions.


What populations of organisms would be affected if grass is removed?

Almost all of the organisms will be affected because the grass is the first step in energy flow or what we called PRODUCERS.


What would be located at the bottom of an energy pyramid found in the ocean?

At the bottom of an ocean energy pyramid, you would typically find phytoplankton or algae, which are the primary producers that convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. These organisms form the base of the marine food chain, providing energy to the rest of the ecosystem.


Describe the type of organisms a person would find most prevalent in the open water zone?

Single celled Algae.
