Answer:

C. The pond experienced an algae bloom.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph we see that the fish population continue to decrease with time. As time passed on, the fish population keeps suffering a decline. In retrospect, the population of the algae continued to increase.

  • We can ascribe this to the pond experiencing an algae bloom.
  • It could be due to condition called eutrophication.
  • When nutrients become very much in water and more algae is produced.
  • This leads to dissolve oxygen amount reducing in the water body.
  • Therefore, fishes will die off.
