lake the less the water has to travel with in my understanding means
that C and E are closer so they have a lower amount of distance to
travel to get to the lake. Less distance means less elevation, Which
leads to more fertilizer pollution.
E390- After analyzing the data I believe Toms claim is untrue and
inaccurate. The fertilizer pollution did not come from farms A and C.
Yes, it did come from farm A, but it also was from farm E, rather than C.
Lets, talk about why I believe Toms claim is false. Tom believed that
farms A and C were the farms causing the fertilizer pollution, but I
disagree. Although, both farms have the largest amount of nitrates
(mg/l), farm E is more elevated than farm C. This causes more nitrates
(mg/l) to go into the stream because the more elevated something is,
the higher the risk of it falling. Because farm C is not as elevated as
farm E, less nitrates (mg/l) will get into the stream that flows into the
lake. As I examined the data I noticed that farm C had 13 milligrams of
nitrates per liter and an elevation of 65 feet, while farm E only had 11
milligrams of nitrates per liter, but an elevation of 79 feet. If you divide
65 by 13 you get 5, therefore about 5 milligrams of nitrate per liter got
into the lake. Doing the same thing with farm Es data, if you divide 79
by 11, you about 7 (remainder of 2), there 7 milligrams of nitrates per
liter got into the stream. Both farms (E and C) have a decent amount of
nitrates (mg/l) and an elevation at the smaller end of the scale. Farm E
is more elevated than farm C making it easier for the fertilizer pollution
to get into the stream. This also means farm C has the smallest
elevation making it the most difficult for the pollution to reach the
streams. You may look at the data and think farm F is definitely one of
the largest causes of the fertilizer pollution because of its large
elevation. This is inaccurate because if you look at the milligrams of
nitrates per liter you will see farm F only has 1.9. This means it will not
provide the largest amount of pollution because 1.9 is one of the
smallest pieces of data. After analyzing and looking over this data I can
conclude that farm A and farm E are the sites causing the most
fertilizer pollution. Above I provided my evidence of why I believe
Toms claim was inaccurate and why mine is correct. I showed how the
elevation and the milligrams of nitrates per liter affects the amount of
fertilizer pollution the lake is receiving from one site.
E454- The water systems from site A and E are the source of water
pollution because of the nitrate and elevation chart. Tom is wrong
because the water pollution from A and B covers up the pollution in the
water. Tom is incorrect because the waterway E is connected to D.
While C is on the way with B and A. When run off water comes down
from A and B it covers up all the nasty water pollution in Lake C. While
E on the other hand has water way E only has D coming down to run
off so therefore the waterways A and E are very poisonous because not
only from the nitrates because normal 1 or 2 but the nitrates of
waterway A is 28 and E is 11 also with the elevation of A is 350 and E
is 79 those numbers do not go together in the terms of waterways.
Pollution in the waterways is a very big issue. The calculations of the
data in this chart for waterway A and E is outrageous because if you
were to calculate a normal water way the nitrate wouldnt come close
to 28 or 11. So there fore waterway A and E are the most dangerous.
E410- believe that farms E and A is the sources of fertilizer pollution
because farm A get 28 mg/l and farm D gets 11mg/l.
Farm A should haves the most nitrates and highest elevation because
the fertilizer flows down from A to get to the lake it can catch most of it
making pollution of the fertilizer go down. E should get it to because it
haves a smaller elevation to catch it and it will be more effective
because farm D only made 2 mg/l and farm E makes 11 mg/l put them
together it makes 13 mg/l which having it there will be less of a
problem with farms E and D.
Putting it at A and C is not going to work well because their on the
same river.By having it at A and E two rivers will be effected and help
lower the fertilizer levels.
E400My claim is that farms a and e are the most likely sources of fertilizer
pollution and not farms a and c because letter c one of the lowest of
nitrates and elevation although letter a is the highest cs elevation is
lower than the others and es is higher than c and tom doesn't give a
lot of evidence to prove his claim. why i think farms a and e are most
likely source of fertilizer pollution is because both farms a and e has
the most amount of nitrates and elevation the farms numbers are
(28mg/
E441- It is true that farms A and C have the highest recorded values at
any of the farms in the area. Farm C is downstream of farm A, so some
of the pollution from farm A is carried down to farm C. Meaning that
farm C could not be the reason the lake is polluted.Farm E could be
affecting the Lake, even though it is downstream of another farm. This
is because the farm does not have a high enough nitrate level to affect
farm E.
E398- Tom says that he might have an idea which framer is using too
much fertilizer. So he stated that he thinks that farm A and C are the
ones using too much fertilize. He said this because Nitrate measures
in the streams by their farms (28 mg/l at A and 13 mg/l at C) are the
highest recorded values at any of the farms in the area. The high
readings in the streams by these two farms indicate that fertilizer is
