Does variable mean the same as result?

no a variable is anything that can change. a result is what you conclude after performing an experiment. example: ok let's say you want to test a new fertilizer you would most likely use two different plants in the same room using a different fertilizer for each plant. the variable would be the fertilizer and the result would be if the new fertilizer worked or not. hope this helps.


How could the problem of algal blooms be solved?

Organic farming methods enable farmers and gardeners to prepare soil in such a way that nitrogen is added naturally through nitrogen-fixing bacteria rather than nitrogen having to be added through a synthetic fertilizer. This method of growing crops saves farmers money and alleviates the problems associated with fertilizer runoffFarmers and gardeners should use other methods to provide crops with the nitrogen they need.Algal blooms are due to the accumulation of algae, generally Cynabobacteria and Dinoflagellates, that grow due to excess nutrients in water.If good algae grow, they do not accumulate in the waterbodies.Diatom Algae are good algae.Therefore if Diatoms are grown instead of Cyanobacteria and Dinoflagellates, there would be no accumulation and no problem of algal blooms.
