When fertilizers run off farmland into streams and ponds, the nitrogen content of the water increases. this can lead to rapid growth of algae in a process called eutrophication. how can this process affect other organisms in the water? question 1 options: the algae provide food for fishes and other organisms, leading to decreased algae populations. the water becomes better able to support aerobic organisms. the extra nitrogen provides additional food for the other organisms, increasing their population. oxygen is used up as algae is decomposed, reducing the amount available to other organisms.

How do temperature and salinity affect deepwater currents? they create changes in wind direction, moving denser water in the same direction as the wind and causing the deepwater circulation patterns found in the ocean. as temperatures and salinity levels of water increase, the water rises to the surface where it creates currents as it moves to colder regions. they create density differences that cause dense deepwater currents to flow toward the equator where they displace less dense, warmer water above them. they equalize the forces on undersea currents caused by the coriolis effect as they replace more dense water with less dense water.
