Answer 2

Answer:

1. The Industries set up at the time of Industrialisation near the Ganga river swept harmful chemicals in to the river which caused it's pollution
2. 1. Effects on Man:

• On a worldwide scale, the pollution of water supplies is probably responsible for more human illness than any other environmental influence. The diseases so transmitted are chiefly caused by micro-organisms and parasites. Sewage and polluted water are responsible for several water-borne diseases.
• 2. Effects on Aquatic Life:
• The effect of water pollution is more on aquatic life, because their existence depends on water and when there is any disturbance in their ecosystem, the impact is maximum on them. In polluted water, due to abundant growth of algae, the oxygen content becomes lesser, causing the death of fishes and other organisms. It is estimated that during the last twenty years, there is a decrease of about 40 per cent in aquatic life.
• 3. Other Effects:
• Due to water pollution, the physical and physiological nature of water has also changed. The colour of water changes due to pollutants, mainly due to organic dyes. The colour in itself is not harmful; however, aesthetic considerations make coloured water unsuitable for any purpose.
