One reason a lake may receive more water from sewage than from natural falling rainwater may be that there are far more sewage outlets due to an urban setting. Another may be that the lake is near a water treatment plant and a large metropolitan area.
a lake
Lake, mere, tarn, are three possibilities.
A man-made water holding site could be a reservoir, dam, or retention pond constructed to store water for various purposes. A natural water holding site could be a lake, wetland, or natural basin that naturally retains water through rainfall, runoff, or underground sources.
it can pullute the lake by the harmful chemicals in the water Specifically Nitrogen, high levels can kill fish and any amount will promote the growth of aquatic plants and algea, altering the lakes composition and upsetting the equilibrium, the abundance of plants and algae will promote an overpopulation of cleaning type fish which also eat the eggs of other types of fish, lowering their numbers, the overabundance of plants will also alter the circulation of the water causing the lake to become stagnant. Better to leave it all to nature.
This is the water cycle.
Sewage would have a greater effect in a lake than in a river because rivers have more flow to them and the sewage travels faster than a lake with no current.
The lake receives more water from sewerage than natural water flow because many homes and companies tap rain water use it ant them releases it to the lake.
Generally sewage is pumped out into the sea rather than a lake. Also a lake will recieve water due to rainfall.
depends how close the sewage treatment center is to the lake.
Water pollution is the contamination of water bodies (e.g. lakes, rivers, oceans, aquifers and groundwater). Water pollution occurs whenpollutants are discharged directly or indirectly into water bodies without adequate treatment to remove harmful compounds.Water pollution affects plants and organisms living in these bodies of water. In almost all cases the effect is damaging not only to individual species and populations, but also to the natural biological communities.
One New York State river that receives water flowing from Lake Huron is the St. Lawrence River. The St. Lawrence River serves as a natural outlet for the Great Lakes, including Lake Huron, as it flows eastward into the Atlantic Ocean. Water from Lake Huron enters the St. Lawrence River through the Straits of Mackinac and Lake Michigan, ultimately contributing to the river's flow and ecosystem.
Water (Ex. Lake Erie)
Water
lake Erie is a natural resource itself because of the fish that you eat and the water to drink.
To carry sewage and pollution away from the city's drinking water supply, Lake Michigan.
It goes to a lake from the aqifer. Aquifer in a natural layer of water underneath the ground.
