Textbook Question
Chapter 52.3, Problem 3CC
MAKE CONNECTIONS → As noted in Figure 52.15, the addition of nutrients to a lake can cause an algal bloom. When these algae die, complex molecules in their bodies are broken down by decomposers using aerobic respiration. Explain why this would reduce the lake's oxygen levels (see Concept 9.1).

MAKE CONNECTIONS Refer to the discussion of oceanacidification in Concept 3.3. Ocean acidification andchanges in the distribution of C3 and C4 plants may seemto be two very different problems, but what do theyhave in common? Explain.
MAKE CONNECTIONS Review the discussion of feedback regulation in Concept 1.1. Could effects of globalwarming on peatlands alter CO2 concentrations in waysthat result in negative or positive feedback? Explain.
WHAT IF? The main product of fossil fuel combustion is CO2 , and thisis the source of the increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration. Scientistshave proposed strategically situating containers of these algae near industrialplants or near highly congested city streets. Considering the process ofphotosynthesis, how does this arrangement make sense?
