Select one a fungi C. bacteria d. plants e volcanic activity

Explanation / Answer

1 ) Precipitation

Precipitation is the water released from clouds in the form of rain,snow or hail when the water vapour cools and forms clouds through condensation.

2) Dead Fish

Cultural eutrophication is the process that speeds up natural eutrophication due to human activity which leads to the accumulation of phosphorous and nitrogen to leach into ground water and then to the suroounding water bodies. This leads to the increased growth of algal blooms,phytoplankton and form dead zones where no organisms live.

3) Phytoplankton

Phytoplankton are the microalgae that plays a key role in the oceanic food web.They form the primary food source for zooplankton and together form the base of the oceanic food chain.

4) Bacteria

Nitrifying and Denitrifying Bacteria carry out functions to keep the nitrogen cycle going.
