Answer:

Explanation:

Ganga is an east flowing river in India. The slope towards the east is gentle. Hence, the velocity of the river is less. Due to this sediments are deposited and fertile plains are formed. As the plains are fertile, people practice agriculture and due to agriculture, factories have developed in that region. As a result, the population in the Ganga Bhramaputra basin is high. People practice many other occupations on the banks and use the water of the river for many other purposes. So the pollution will affect the people a Lot as it would directly or indirectly enter the food chain.

On the other hand, Amazon river is covered with dense thick forests which are highli inaccessible due to frequent flooding and dense undergrowth. The river also receives a huge discharge. Thus, there is less inhabitation. Hence the pollution in the Amazon basin won't affect human life greatly.
