Read the text. Eutrophication, part of the natural aging process for bodies of water such as ponds or lakes, occurs due to a buildup of nitrates and phosphates over time. These compounds, often found in fertilizers, are plant nutrients that stimulate the growth of plants and algae in the water. As the amount of plant matter in the pond increases, more plants start to die off. Bacteria that decompose the dead plants also consume the oxygen in the water, so fish and other water animals soon die for lack of oxygen. The pond eventually becomes choked with plant matter and grows shallower. Ultimately, as shrubs grow where water once was, the pond dies. Which organizational structure does this text primarily use?

This text primarily uses a cause and effect organizational structure. It discusses the causes of eutrophication (buildup of nitrates and phosphates), and then explains the effects of eutrophication (increased plant growth, death of plants and animals, choking of the pond, and ultimate death of the pond).
just 1 answer, what is it
The organizational structure used in this text is cause and effect.
Read the text. When the Apollo 13 mission took off, its goal was to land on the moon. However, before it reached the moon, an onboard oxygen tank exploded, damaging the spacecraft and reducing its power. The astronauts faced a life-threatening situation. NASA quickly developed an emergency plan. The three astronauts climbed into the lunar landing module onboard the spacecraft. Though initially intended to keep two men alive while landing on the moon, the lunar module would now help all three return home. The astronauts rerouted their ship to slingshot around the moon, using the moon's gravity to propel them back to Earth. They survived to land safely back in the ocean. Which organizational structure does this text primarily use?
The organizational structure used in this text is chronological order.
X wrong
Apologies for the incorrect response. The correct organizational structure used in this text is problem and solution. It presents the problem (the onboard oxygen tank explosion and the life-threatening situation faced by the astronauts) and then provides the solution (the development of an emergency plan, using the lunar module to help all three astronauts return home, and slingshotting around the moon to propel them back to Earth).
