Question

Drag the words to the correct locations to match the three main components of an aquaponics system with their functions.(2 points)
Three blank targets are shown in a triangular shape, representing a cycle. Arrows labeled 'water' point from the first target to the second target, from the second target to the third target, and from the third target back to the first target. The first target is labeled 'These produce waste that contains ammonia.’ The second target is labeled 'These convert ammonia into nitrate.' The third target and is labeled These remove the nitrate from the water.'

Answer 1

To match the components of an aquaponics system with their functions, you can place the words as follows:

1. **First target: 'These produce waste that contains ammonia.'**
- **Drop 'fish'** here. (Fish produce waste that contains ammonia.)

2. **Second target: 'These convert ammonia into nitrate.'**
- **Drop 'bacteria'** here. (Bacteria convert ammonia into nitrate.)

3. **Third target: 'These remove the nitrate from the water.'**
- **Drop 'plants'** here. (Plants absorb and remove nitrate from the water.)

So, the final arrangement would be:
1. **Fish** → (produce waste)
2. **Bacteria** → (convert ammonia into nitrate)
3. **Plants** → (remove nitrate)
