Freshwater ecology is the study of freshwater organisms and how they are related to their habitats and cultural environments. It is important to study freshwater ecology in order to make sure we as humans do not hurt or disrupt the environment of all of the fish and freshwater organisms with activities we do in everyday life involving their environments like recreational activities on lakes and ponds.
A pond is just a stationary body of water, while a river is a flowing body of water. A pond does not lead to anything, while a river flows to a larger body of water, whether it be a bay, lake, sea, or ocean. The organisms living in a pond do not have to be able to withstand a current, while many organisms that are native to rivers must have some sort of adaptation in order to not be swept into the current.
