Solution

The correct option is D Hypertension
Noise pollution can cause insomnia, as it would be difficult to sleep in the presence of noise.
Noise pollution also affects the blood pressure, which leads to hypertension.
If the noise is beyond a certain decibel level, it can cause hearing impairment or loss.
However, malaria is not caused by noise pollution.
