Question

What kind of genetic factors affect algae growth?

Answer 1

ANSWER :

• Algae prefer stable conditions. Low water levels create slower, more uniform conditions that encourage algae growth.

• Warmer water leads to increased algae growth. The temperature of the water may even favor the growth of certain types of algae over others.

• Nutrients, like nitrogen and phosphorus, fuel algae growth; however, excess nutrients from human activities can exacerbate algae blooms.
