Solution

  1. The organisms that are found on the bark of trees as indicators of a pollution-free environment are lichens and mosses.
  2. These organisms are sensitive to sulfur oxides (SO2) and cannot grow in the region that possesses SO2 or other oxides of sulfur.
  3. So that indicates that the absence of these organisms shows pollution or a polluted area.
