There is a group that has proposed the construction of islands in the middle of Utah Lake. The proposal suggests that dredging the lake (making it deeper) will help improve water quality and the dredged sediment can then be used to construct the islands. Knowing that carp and catfish, both bottom feeders, contain high levels of mercury, do you think this is a good idea? Explain your answer in a paragraph, be sure to include terms such as biomagnification and bioaccumulation, as well as any potential health risks. Also include a drawing or diagram showing how this solution would play out.
