Question
acid deposition is a process that kills organisms very slowly. soils that are acidified from acid deposition release aluminum to surrounding waters, which can cause what types of problems in the waters? increase the ability of organisms to live in the waters reduce the ability of the waters to support sensitive aquatic organisms
Acid deposition leads to soil acidification, releasing aluminum. Aluminum in water is toxic to many aquatic organisms. It can damage gills, disrupt osmoregulation, and interfere with enzyme functions. This reduces the water's ability to support sensitive aquatic life. The first option ("Increase the ability of organisms to live in the waters") is incorrect because aluminum from acid - deposition - acidified soils is harmful, not beneficial.
