Question

6 multiple choice 1 point aquatic succession begins when: saltwater evaporates from shallow ponds water fills a new basin or depression sediment compacts into rock rivers overflow during floods

Explanation:

Aquatic succession is the process by which a body of water changes over time. It begins when water fills a new basin or depression, creating a habitat for aquatic organisms. As time passes, sediment and organic matter accumulate, and the water body gradually transforms.

• Saltwater evaporating from shallow ponds is not the start of aquatic succession.
• Sediment compacting into rock is a geological process not related to the start of aquatic succession.
• Rivers overflowing during floods is a hydrological event, not the beginning of aquatic succession.

Answer:

Water fills a new basin or depression
