Type of microorganisms are found in the pond water

Answer»

Pond water contains a number of arthropods such as copepods, water fleas and ostracods (crustaceans). These types of MICROORGANISMS are visible to the naked eye (with the largest specimen exceeding 3 millimeters in length), and can THEREFORE be seen without the use of a microscope.


Some of the other organisms in this group include among others; water mites, mosquito larvae, water bears (tardigrades) water shrimp and other larger crustaceans like the water louse. DEPENDING on the type of arthropod, some will be FOUND on the surface (most insects) while others can only survive in the water as is the case with most crustaceans.
