Pollution has a significant impact on aquatic ecosystems and marine life. Pollutants, such as chemicals, pesticides, and heavy metals, can accumulate in the water and affect the health of marine organisms. They can damage the gills and other organs of fish, and can cause a number of health problems, including decreased reproduction, deformities, and death. Additionally, pollution can cause eutrophication, a process in which excessive nutrients lead to an overgrowth of algae that depletes oxygen levels and leads to the death of fish and other marine organisms. Finally, plastic pollution can cause entanglement, suffocation, and ingestion of
