Solution
The correct option is C Silt and pesticides.
Freshwater pollution is the contamination of inland water
(not saline) with substances that make it unfit for its natural or intended
use. Pollution may be caused by fecal waste, chemicals, pesticides, petroleum,
sediment, or even heated discharges. Polluted rivers and lakes are unfit for
swimming or fishing; polluted water is unsafe to drink.
