Nitrogen and Eutrophication Lab Based on the data you collected on the previous slide, write a conclusion below in the CER format Claim: Which fertilizer (nitrogen or phosphorus) had the greatest impact on the algae growth in the lake? fertilizer had the greatest impact on the algae growth in the lake. Evidence: Use data from your table to support your clalm. Test tube #2 and # 4 had a growth level of while Test tube #3 had a growth level of The control test tube did not have as much growth as the others, but still had a growth This shows that some algae growth will occur even without fertilizers being tevet of added. Reasoning: What information from the Background paragraph can you use to explain this result? The main nutrient that the algae needed to grow was fertilizer with fertilizer without We see this in our results as the in it caused a higher growth rate of algae. This means that if the farmer uses a in it, he will see less eutrophication occurring in the lake.

Which statement offers the best explanation of how deforesting hubbard brooks watershed (W2) affected the nitrogen cycle? 1. Denitrification rates increased, resulting in a decrease in the export of ammonium 2. Microbial immobilization rates increased, resulting in a decline in stream nitrogen 3.

For "select variables", choose these three: 1. Under "Water Resources" choose "Total Renewable Water Resources" and within that choose only "Total Renewable Water Resources per Capita. 2. Choose "Water Use" and then "Pressure on Water Resources" . Within that subset choose only"SDG 6.4.2 Water Stress". "SDG" means the Sustainable Development Goal. This value is the percentage of total available water that is used by a nation. 3. Under "Water Use" choose "Water Withdrawal by Sector", and within that choose only "Total Water Withdrawal per Capita". Nation Resources per Capita Withdrawal per Capita % Water Stress: withdrawal vs. resources) Step 2. Based…
