someone please answer this
Found it. Its oligotrophic.
eutrotrophic
Add nutrients (phosphorus, nitrogen, etc.)
Oligotrophic refers generally to ecosystems which have very little nutrients to sustain life. These can be very salty lakes or soils with a very low nitrogen content.An oligotrophic lake is that with plenty of oxygen but deficient of nutrients for plant growth.
Lake Mead is generally considered a mesotrophic to eutrophic lake, rather than oligotrophic. Oligotrophic lakes are characterized by low nutrient levels and high oxygen content, typically supporting fewer aquatic plants and animals. In contrast, Lake Mead has experienced fluctuations in nutrient levels due to factors like runoff and water management practices, leading to increased productivity in some areas. Therefore, it does not fit the criteria for being classified as oligotrophic.
Well this answers part ofthe Q. I did an experiment at uni that produced an oli. We had a final pH of about 8.2 ish
The least productive freshwater system is typically oligotrophic lakes. These lakes are characterized by low nutrient levels, resulting in limited biological productivity and therefore fewer plants and aquatic organisms. Their clear waters often support only a small number of species, making them less productive compared to more nutrient-rich systems like eutrophic lakes or wetlands.
I want to say yes. Lake Michigan is not Oligotrophic like Lake George in New York. It isn't Eutrophic or Hypereutrophic which are characterized by high levels of nitrogen and phosphorus and low levels of oxygen near the bottom of the lake.
Some common fish that can be found in eutrophic waters include carp, bullhead catfish, and bluegill. These fish are more tolerant of the lower oxygen levels and higher nutrient concentrations typically found in eutrophic environments. However, eutrophic conditions can lead to algal blooms that may be harmful to fish populations in the long term.
No, not all plantlike protists are eutrophic. Eutrophication refers to an excess of nutrients in the environment, which can lead to algal blooms. Plantlike protists can be found in various types of habitats, not just eutrophic ones.
what is the importance of the great lakes
they are important because it helps in irrigation
