Water Quality B/C

[BennyTheJett]

From my research, CO₂ is more soluble in warmer water than oxygen. CO₂ is also less soluble in warmer water, however CO₂ is more soluble than oxygen to start with. My bad on the poor wording, and sorry for starting an argument.

When sunlight hits the surface of the ocean, which color is most likely to attenuate first? Last?

How does the crown of thorns starfish move?

The barramundi cod was speared in 2010 off of what US state, raising fear that it would become an invasive species?

[SilverBreeze]

Not sure, but here: 1. Red, blue
2. tube feet
3. FL

Nailed it! Your turn!

[SilverBreeze]

1. What percent of energy is transferred between trophic levels?
2. What compounds are responsible for acid rain?
3. What does protogynous mean, with regard to lifecycles?

[kate!]

1. 10%
2. NO_x and SO₂ or nitrous oxides and sulfur dioxide
3. Um I think this means the organism is a hermaphrodite but like.. first they're female and then they turn male?

All correct! Your turn!

1. What's the difference between potable water treatment and wastewater treatment?
2. How are fjord estuaries formed?
3. Which two organisms on the ID list have a parasitic relationship and explain how this relationship works.

1. the main difference is what the water is used for afterwards. in potable water treatment, its meant to be consumed so the water must be a lot cleaner than wastewater treatment in which water normally goes back out to the environment
2. by glaciers
3. im not really sure but maybe flamingo tongue snails and gorgonia since the snail scrapes polyps off leaving feeding scars on the coral. idk maybe this is more like predation/herbivory but i cant think of any other example of parasitism...

Yeah for the last one it isn't really a parasitic relationship but that was a question on a test I took once (asking what organism flamingo-tongued snails had a parasitic relationship with).
