Answer 2

A newly formed lake is most likely Eutrophic.

Explanation:

• Eutrophication is the process by which an entire body of water, or part thereof, becomes progressively enriched with minerals and nutrients, especially nitrogen and phosphorus.
• It is also defined as "nutrient-induced increase in phytoplankton productivity".
• Eutrophic conditions are created when a water body is "fed" with too many nutrients, especially phosphorus and nitrogen.
• The extra food causes the algae to grow out of control, and when the algae die, the bacteria present use up a lot of the dissolved oxygen in the water body.
• In eutrophic lakes most of the lake is occupied by plants, and open water fish such as walleyes begin to disappear while shallow water and plant-associated fish become established.
• Largemouth bass and sunfish predominate in eutrophic lakes.
