Animals may ingest litter, mistaking it for food, leading to poisoning or injury. Soil pollution disrupts plant growth, affecting animals that depend on these plants for sustenance and shelter.

What is one of the major consequences of water pollution on marine ecosystems?

• Increased fish population

• Massive fish kills

• Improved coral reef health

• Enhanced marine biodiversity

How does water pollution affect coral reefs?

• It has no effect

• It damages them

• It causes them to grow faster

• It strengthens their structure

What mistake do birds and mammals often make with litter?

• They use it for building nests

• They use it to mark territory

• They mistake it for food

• They ignore it completely

What is a consequence of soil pollution on plant life?

• Disrupted plant growth

• No effect on plants

• Enhanced plant growth

• Plants become more resilient

How does soil pollution indirectly affect animals?

• By providing more food

• By improving their habitats

• By making them immune to diseases

• By impacting the plants they rely on
