Solution
The correct option is C Air pollution Particulate matter is the small and fine solid particles present in the atmosphere. These suspended particles may be due to aerosols, dust particles, particles of carbon or other elements, etc. When the amount of these particles and the pollutants in the atmosphere are higher, there is a reduction in the intensity of the sunlight reaching this region. Due to the air pollution in the cities, there is less intensity of the light which is received compared to the villages.
