Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The types of organisms found in a pond or lake depend on
A
the amount of sunlight available
B
the temperature of the water
C
the presence of nutrients
D
all of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The salinity of the water body is also a determining factor in the kinds of species found in the water body. Organisms in marine ecosystems tolerate salinity, while many freshwater organisms are intolerant of salt.

Detailed explanation-2: -The types of organisms in an aquatic ecosystem are mainly determined by the water’s salinity. As a result, aquatic ecosystems are divided into freshwater and marine ecosystems. Freshwater ecosystems include ponds, lakes, streams, rivers, and wetlands.

Detailed explanation-3: -Pond ecology is best described as the interaction of the life in your pond with the environment that exists there. A shallow, nutrient-rich pond, exposed to sunlight with little water flowing through it will be teeming with algae and aquatic plants.

Detailed explanation-4: -the types of organisms in an aquatic ecosystem are mainly determined by the water’s salinity-the amount of dissolved salts the water contains. As a result, aquatic ecosystems are divided into freshwater ecosystems and marine ecosystems.

Detailed explanation-5: -The major types of organisms found in aquatic environments are determined by the salinity of the water. Salinity means the amounts of salts dissolved in a volume of water. That is why aquatic life zones are divided up between saltwater life zones and freshwater life zones.
