Question

multiple choice question
which is the process by which the surrounding watershed enriches bodies of water with nutrients that stimulate excessive plant growth?
fertilization
rejuvenation
eutrophication
precipitation

Explanation:

• Fertilization is the process of adding nutrients to soil for plant growth, not specifically about water bodies.
• Rejuvenation means restoring to a former state, not related to nutrient - enrichment in water.
• Precipitation is the falling of water (rain, snow, etc.) from the atmosphere, not about nutrient - induced plant growth in water.
• Eutrophication is the process where nutrients (like from runoff in a watershed) enter water bodies, causing excessive plant (algae, etc.) growth.

Answer:

C. eutrophication
