Nitrates and phosphates can leak from mineral fertilisers that are put on fields. If it rains, they are easily leached into rivers and lakes. this results in eutrophication. Basically...
- The extra nutrients causes algae to grow super fast. This blocks out the light
- Plants in the river (before the algae) can not photosynthesise due to low light. They die.
- With more food (dead plants) available, microorganisms living in the water rapidly increase in number and deplete/use up all of the oxygen in the water.
- Organisms, like fish for example, that need oxygen, die.
A blog covering and explaining the Edexcel IGCSE Biology specification for the 2016 summer exams. If you are doing just double science, you do not need to learn the stuff for paper two, if you are doing triple you will need to learn all (GOOD LUCK!) I have separated the papers to make files easier to find. Hope it helps :)
