Hydrosere Quiz 1

Ecological disturbances happen before any step in the process happens

Phytoplankton colonize the body of water which then decays and turns into muck.

Large animals inhabit the ecosystem by drinking the water away

Muck is formed at the bottom of a body of water first

Light is not seen in any step of the hydrosere process

A marshy soil at the bottom forms as a result of phytoplanktons death

Submerged plants start to grow during the 2nd stage of the hydrosere process

The death and decay of submerged plants decrease the shallowness of the water

The shallowness of the water causes the submerged plants to die

The shallowness increases which allows for the growth of free floating plants which causes the submerged plants die out

Submerged plants die overtime due to disease
