These pollutants have contributed to algae blooms, which deplete oxygen levels in the water, creating \"dead zones\" where aquatic life struggles to survive. While efforts have been made to clean up the lake, such as the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement between the U.S. and Canada, Lake Erie remains particularly vulnerable due to its shallow depth and high levels of human activity along its shoreline.","mcq_options":[{"right":"no","answer":"Lake Michigan"},{"right":"yes","answer":"Lake Erie"},{"right":"no","answer":"Lake Ontario"},{"right":"no","answer":"Lake Superior"}],"multi_answers":"no","subject_terms":[{"id":1846,"title":"Geography of the United States","slug":"geography-of-the-united-states"}],"topic_terms":[{"id":1749,"title":"The Great Lakes and other major lakes in the United States","slug":"the-great-lakes-and-other-major-lakes-in-the-united-states"},{"id":1747,"title":"The Rivers and Waterways of the United States","slug":"the-rivers-and-waterways-of-the-united-states"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq\/10644","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mcq"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mcq"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3502"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10644"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10644"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic?post=10644"},{"taxonomy":"subject","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mcqacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject?post=10644"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
