Solution

The correct option is B False
Sewage water and industrial waste water contain a lot of chemicals, unused materials, and harmful microorganisms, and should not be directly disposed of into the rivers and lakes because they cause water pollution and contamination which is a threat to aquatic life. They should be first treated before dumping into these places.
