Solution

The correct option is B Eutrophication
Excess use of fertilization may lead to eutrophication. It is a form of water pollution. It can be defined as the enrichment of an ecosystem with chemical nutrients, typically compounds containing nitrogen, phosphorus or both. This can be a problem in the marine habitats such as lake as it can cause algal blooms.
