The three main chemicals in fertilizers are nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. These help the plants grow bigger quicker.
When farmers use fertilizers on their crops runoff carries the fertilizers into nearby water systems causing an algae bloom which is when algae grows in great amounts
When an algal bloom occurs it blocks out photosynthesis for marine plants. The algae dies causing decomposition which requires oxygen meaning there is less for the fish. When the fish die out due to hypoxia a deadzone occurs.
