Solution

The correct option is B Fly ash
The major pollutants emitted by motor vehicles including CO, NOx, sulphur oxides (SO), hydrocarbon gases (HC), lead (Pb) and suspended particulate matter (SPM), have damaging effects on both human health and ecology. The internal combustion engines need a mixture of air and fuel to burn and produce energy to propel the vehicle. These burnt gases which come out of the exhaust are responsible for pollution. Fly ash is one of the residues generated by coal combustion.
