The Hidden Dangers: What's Missing In Polluted Water

Polluted water contains toxic substances which make it unfit for human consumption. It also disturbs the aquatic flora and fauna, leading to growth of algal blooms and eutrophication. The larva of stone fly is sensitive and does not grow in polluted water.

Hydrilla

However, Hydrilla does not grow in polluted water. It requires well-aerated water and acts as a bio-indicator of water pollution.

Polluted water is rich in phosphates and nitrates, which leads to the growth of algal blooms and eutrophication. Excess nutrients and reduced oxygen cause algae like blue-green algae to grow in the water.

Therefore, Hydrilla is absent in polluted water.

Water hyacinth

Polluted water is rich in phosphates and nitrates and contains toxic substances which make it unfit for human consumption. It also disturbs the aquatic flora and fauna and leads to the growth of algal blooms and eutrophication.

The larva of a stone fly is also sensitive to water pollution. It produces larvae in water and does not grow in polluted water.

Blue-green algae also grow in polluted water because it is rich in phosphates and nitrates.

Larva of stone fly

The larva of a stone fly is sensitive and does not grow in polluted water. It is used as a bio-indicator of water pollution.

The larva of a stone fly requires well-aerated water and does not grow in polluted water. It is sensitive to the presence of toxic substances and disturbed aquatic flora and fauna that are rich in phosphates and nitrates.

When the environment becomes rich in nutrients, the aquatic environment faces a problem of an increase in algae. Some of the algae produce toxins which are harmful to other organisms.

The larva of a stone fly is absent in polluted water because it is sensitive to the presence of toxic substances and disturbed aquatic flora and fauna that are rich in phosphates and nitrates.

The larva of a stone fly is a sensitive insect that produces larvae in water. It requires well-aerated water and does not grow in polluted water. It is used as a bio-indicator of water pollution.

Blue green algae

Polluted water is rich in phosphates and nitrates, and contains toxic substances which make it unfit for human consumption. It also disturbs the aquatic flora and fauna, leading to growth of algal blooms and eutrophication.

Blue-green algae use the excess nutrients and reduced oxygen in polluted water to grow and multiply. This results in the formation of algal blooms.

Blue-green algae require well-aerated water and does not grow in polluted water. It acts as a bio-indicator of water pollution.

When the environment becomes rich in nutrients, the aquatic environment faces a problem of an increase in the algae. Some of the algae produce toxins which are harmful to other organisms.

Blue-green algae is used as an indicator of water quality.

Well-aerated water

Polluted water is rich in phosphates and nitrates and contains toxic substances which make it unfit for human consumption. It also disturbs the aquatic flora and fauna and leads to the growth of algal blooms and eutrophication.

Blue green algae grow in polluted water due to the availability of excess nutrients and reduced oxygen. Hydrilla grows best in carbon dioxide-rich water and shows changes in physiology and morphology.

When the environment becomes rich in nutrients, the aquatic environment faces a problem of an increase in algae. Some of the algae produce toxins which are harmful to other organisms.

Skin-related disorders will be more common in the coming years due to polluted water.
