    Eutrophication refers to increase in domestic sewage and waste water in lakes.
  2. B
    Biomagnification refers to increase in concentration of the toxicant at successive trophic levels.
  3. C
    Presence of large amount of nutrients in water restricts ‘Algal Bloom’
  4. D
    Algal Bloom decreases fish mortality

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

1. Eutrophication is the natural aging of a lake by biological enrichment of its water.2. Correct statement: Biomagnification refers to the increase in concentration of non-degradable toxicants (like DDT) as they move up the food chain.3. High nutrients cause algal blooms.4. Algal blooms increase fish mortality.
