Solution

The correct option is A

True


Accumulation of sewerage leads to water pollution and spread of various diseases. Sewage, fertilizer and agricultural run-off have nutrients and organic substances which lead to increase of algal bloom causing oxygen depletion in water bodies. The lower oxygen levels affect the natural ecological balance of rivers and lake ecosystems. The waste water coming from sewage leads to the spreading of many diseases.
