Answer:

Inadvertent and deliberate discharge of petroleum, improper sewage disposal, and thermal pollution also are seriously affecting the quality of the hydrosphere. The present discussion focuses on three major problems—eutrophication, acid rain, and the buildup of the so-called greenhouse gases.

Development activities on the hydrosphere cause Water Pollution.

Water Pollution:

  • Water contamination occurs when pollutants contaminate water sources and render the water unfit for use in drinking, cooking, cleaning, swimming, and other activities.
  • Chemicals, garbage, germs, and parasites are examples of pollutants.
  • Water is eventually contaminated by all types of pollution.
  • The discharge of pollutants into water bodies that render the water unfit for human use and disturb aquatic ecosystems is referred to as water pollution.
  • Numerous diverse pollutants, such as petroleum, hazardous waste, and disease-causing bacteria, can lead to water pollution.

Hydrosphere:

  • The entire amount of water on a planet is known as the hydrosphere.
  • Water that is present on the planet's surface, beneath, and in the atmosphere all belong to the hydrosphere.
  • The hydrosphere of a planet can exist as liquid, vapor, or ice.
  • Oceans, lakes, and rivers are the surface forms of liquid water on Earth.
  • The total mass of water present on, beneath, and above the surface of a planet, minor planet, or natural satellite is known as the hydrosphere.
  • The hydrosphere on Earth has been around for nearly 4 billion years, yet it is still evolving.
