Solution

The correct option is D
Both soil & water

Many industries are responsible for producing pollutants like sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide. These gases react with the water vapour present in the atmosphere to form sulphuric acid and nitric acid. These acids come down with rain, in the form of acid rain. Acid rain pollutes soil and water bodies by increasing their acidity.
