Solution

(b) A forest is a purifier of air and water.

Plants absorb carbon dioxide present in the air, which is then processed into oxygen through photosynthesis. This oxygen is used for the process of respiration in animals. Trees also help in purifying the air by absorbing harmful greenhouse gases. The roots of the plants filter out the harmful substances present in the water as it seeps into the ground to form groundwater.
