I don't know the answer to this question
Both lentic and lotic
lentic- no moving water lotic- moving water
It has to be Lotic, because of waves and currents.
It has to be Lotic, because of waves and currents.
Lotic ecosystems are flowing water environments like rivers and streams, while lentic ecosystems are standing water environments like lakes and ponds. Lotic ecosystems tend to have faster flow and higher oxygen levels, while lentic ecosystems have calmer waters and more stable environmental conditions. Additionally, lotic ecosystems often have more narrow ecological niches compared to lentic ecosystems.
Essentially there are two main types, Static Water(called lentic) and Flowing Water (called lotic).
Examples of lentic biomes include ponds, lakes, and reservoirs. These freshwater habitats are characterized by still or slow-moving water, supporting a diverse array of plant and animal species adapted to these environments.
A standing freshwater ecosystem is a non-flowing body of water such as lakes, ponds, and reservoirs. These ecosystems have limited water movement which can lead to the formation of distinct habitats and species adaptations.
There are two general terms that categorize freshwater ecosystems. Lentic refers to standing bodies of water (lakes, ponds, and inland wetlands) while lotic refers to flowing systems (streams and rivers).
The three categories of freshwater ecosystems are lentic ecosystems (still water, like lakes and ponds), lotic ecosystems (flowing water, like rivers and streams), and wetlands (areas of land saturated with water, like marshes and swamps).

The factor that divides freshwater ecosystems into two main types is the water flow rate. Ecosystems with slow-moving or still water are called lentic ecosystems, such as lakes and ponds, while ecosystems with fast-moving water are called lotic ecosystems, such as rivers and streams.
