You keep your ecosphere in a sunny spot on your desk next to the window. Your little sister, thinking it's a melted ice pack, puts it in the freezer. You find it before the water has frozen, but unfortunately, the shrimp and other microorganisms die. Will your algae still be able to survive? Explain why or why not? Talk about the inputs and outputs of photosynthesis in your answer

Respuesta :

Answer:

Both shrimp and algae are interdependent on each other and need sunlight, without which both die.

Explanation:

  • The lifespan of shrimp in the ecosphere is about 2 to 3 years and may live for about 10 years. The availability of sunlight leads to the growth of algae and which provides food and oxygen for the shrimp as they release carbon dioxide.  
  • Due to the overflow of carbon dioxide and the unavailability of r sunlight for the processing of oxygen in the ecosphere, the algae and other shrimp die. As the balance of the ecosphere is disturbed the photosynthesis will not take place.
