← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome destabilizes aquatic food webs dominated by cyanobacteria?
A)Niche partitioning diversifies resource utilization
B)Enhanced nitrogen fixation alters stoichiometry✓
C)Algal bloom promotes zooplankton grazing
D)Nutrient cycling strengthens ecosystem resilience
💡 Explanation
Harmful algal blooms occur when surplus resources promote cyanobacterial proliferation. Enhanced nitrogen fixation allows a population explosion because nutrient ratios are imbalanced; therefore, the food web collapses; rather than balanced aquatic conditions stabilizing it.
