Detailed Solution

  • The given statement is true.
  •  The ponds which look green from a distance are because they have a lot of algae growing in them.
  • This is caused by excessive quantities of chemicals which get washed from the fields.
  • These act as nutrients for algae to flourish. Once these algae die, they serve as food for decomposers like bacteria.
  • A lot of oxygen in the water body gets used up which results in a decrease in the oxygen level which may kill aquatic organisms.
