Solution

The correct options are
A residential area
B drainage pipe
Point sources are discrete source of water pollution like ships, drainage pipes and factory outlets.
Non-point source of water pollution is a combination of pollutants from a large area. For example, polluted water is emptied into streams or rivers after accumulating contaminants from sources like residential areas or construction sites.
