Solution

The correct option is C Oxygen
The oxygen that is dissolved in the water bodies enables the aquatic animals and plants to breathe. Whereas, a pollutant is a substance which when introduced into an environment has undesired effects. Water bottles, industrial effluents (or wastes), spilled oil degrades or lowers the quality of water and harms aquatic life.
