So, we have a few questions to answer
![Page 3: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
These questions are on a little sheet of paper with black
words, bla bla bla
![Page 4: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
First question is, what caused the formation of most lakes in Michigan?
![Page 5: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Well this is Michigan with its
lakes here
![Page 6: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Lake michiganis there for some odd reason people wanted to know to they
made up words like runoff.
![Page 7: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Runoff is were the rain water runs off the slopes
of mountains and hills flowing into creeks, rivers, steams, and soon into the
ocean.
![Page 8: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
However, not all of the water makes it into the
ocean, the water wants to go to the lowest part of land and michigan is not
made like that.
![Page 9: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Here this map shows the depth of lake michigan,
red is not that deep, were the blue area is the deepest part, so the
water is going to want to go there first.
![Page 10: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Now this lake does not have a big enough river that the water can go through to get to the
ocean, therefor the water can do to things.
![Page 11: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
First it can dry up, or second it can stay but only if there is enough
water, if there is there is a new beach for people to pollute with there junk.
![Page 12: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Now the second question is, show how the great
lakes have formed…well start from back in the
beginning.
![Page 13: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
but when I type into the google search engine “Michigan before the
great lakes formed” trains appear.
![Page 14: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
So this is what we looked like before…pretend
that’s all land for now
![Page 15: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Most of people say that the great lakes formed
because of the ice age…well at least a little bit over half of the great
lakes formed
![Page 16: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
And over time with all the rain fall, the water has added onto the great
lakes making them bigger.
![Page 17: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The next question says define eutrophication, and it want a picture…however the word is
spelled wrong…
![Page 18: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
This is a picture of Eutrophication…words
are blurry, it means increase in the rate of
supply of organic matter in an ecosystem… or so
they say…
![Page 19: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Next question wants causes of it…
![Page 20: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Hold on a sec…
![Page 22: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
There you go…here are some causes or
something like that…
![Page 23: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Next question says…askes for me to list them in
steps…
![Page 24: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
First step…
![Page 25: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

So the next question asks…well the next few
asks to define some words…wetland, bog,
marsh, swamp.
![Page 30: Lakes and Wetlands](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56812c7f550346895d912c20/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Wetland – land that is wet, something like a swamp.Bog - it’s a um…a wet marshy ground, largely consisting of accumulated decomposing plant material.Marsh – land that is low lying and is not suitable for building homes and businesses.Swamps – land that has a lot of water and usually if there was building there, they would be built some feet above the ground to avoid flooding of that nasty green water and alligators.
