Solution

The correct options are
B Carbon monoxide
C Smoke
Pollutants are unwanted substances that cause pollution in the environment. When these pollutants enter into the environment, they cause negative changes in it.

Carbon monoxide and smoke are examples of pollutants as they are mainly responsible for causing air pollution.

Oxygen and water vapour do not lead to any negative changes in the environment. So, they are not considered as pollutants.
