The correct option is: INCREASED EUTROPHICATION CAUSED BY HIGH LEVELS OF NITROGEN AND PHOSPHORUS.
Eutrophication refers to the excessive richness of a body of water as a result of run offs from the land. This caused the body of the water to be densely populated by plants thus causing structural changes to the ecosystem of the water.
