Lake succession refers to the natural process through which a lake evolves over time. Oligotrophic lakes have the lowest nutrient levels because they are often very deep, have few nutrients, and low productivity. Mesotrophic lakes have moderate nutrient levels in the form of nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus, and are often characterized by clear water and dense populations of aquatic vegetation. Eutrophic lakes have high nutrient levels and consequently, higher productivity due to larger algae blooms and more plant and animal life. Therefore, the correct order of lake succession from lowest to highest nutrient levels is Oligotrophic, Mesotrophic, and Eutrophic, which is option A.
