2. Lake Michigan
Lake Michigan is in the northwestern part of America (as shown below) and is the only great lake entirely inside the U.S. 

3. Lake Michigan's Food web
The picture on the left shows an energy pyramid which show how energy is created by the producers and then it goes to the consumers. Each level of the energy pyramid has less energy and less population. The picture on the left is Lake Michigan's food web with the producers on the bottom and the energy flow indicated by arrows.

4. Air, Water and Soil
Most of the soil in and around Lake Michigan is rich with nutrients. The air quality of Lake Michigan isn’t very good because of the chemicals and other air pollutants. The water level is going to because of global warming.

5. Human Impact
The human impact of freshwater biomes are immense for example if global warming continues, Lake Michigan will continue to lose water and as a result the heat of lake Michigan will increase, and the circulation of oxygen will slow, which will kill off everything in the lake. This also increases the amount of pollution in the water

6. Habitats
There are several different areas of Lake Michigan. For example in shallow waters the are reeds, algae and some small insects and fish. In really deep waters there aren't going to be that many plants but are going to be lots of big fish. A few of the big limiting factors are the temperature, algae level and pollution. Abiotic factors include the weather, ice, etc.

7. What can be done to help
You can personally help Lake Michigan by recycling or by donating to a program that helps like NOAA.
