What else can I help you with?
Thermal pollution affects only fish?
yes
What two environmental factors affect fish?
Pollution in water affects fish. Pollution can be caused by smoke or smog from factories, etc.
Why are fish most likely to be harmed by long term thermal pollution of the lake in which they live?
Because thermal pollution increases water temperature, so decreasing oxygen availability for the organisms in the lake.
Thermal pollution kill fish primarily because?
Warm water holds less oxygen
What is the excessive heating of a body of water called?
The excessive heating of a body of water is called thermal pollution. Thermal pollution is similar to the greenhouse effect.
An increase in a body of water's temperature caused by adding warmer water is called?
Thermal Pollution.
What is thermal pollution of byproduct?
Thermal pollution is a byproduct of the production of nuclear energy.Thermal pollution is a byproduct of the production of heat. A foundry, for example, produces much thermal pollution in the process of forging steel.
What byproduct is a Thermal pollution?
Thermal pollution is a byproduct of the production of nuclear energy.Thermal pollution is a byproduct of the production of heat. A foundry, for example, produces much thermal pollution in the process of forging steel.
What pollution raises the temperature of water in waterway?
When the temperature of water in waterways increases, it's called thermal pollution.
Control measures of thermal pollution?
Thermal pollution is the result of water that is warmer than the natural temperature of a waterway being released into it. Heating or cooling water to match the temperature of the waterway before it is released will help to resolve thermal pollution.
Do animals die because of thermal pollution?
Fish can be kilked by thermal pollution in any of three ways:Thermal shock: The fish cannot rapidly change its body temperature from cold to hot when the water temperature changes. This is the reason tank fish are allowed to acclimatize before releasing them from the pet shop bag.Oxygen depletion: Hot water holds less oxygen and the fish suffocateEcology change: Warm streams have a different ecology and fish may not find food in the new ecology
What 4 variables can affect the number of fish in a lake?
Overpopulating, to much fishing, pollution, and a rapid decrease in algae or what ever the fish eat
