Lichens do not like to grow in cities because of SO2 pollution.
Answer: Option (C)
Explanation:
- Lichens have shown high sensitivity to sulfur dioxide concentrations.
- It is because the SO2 reacts with the moisture which presents in the earth's surface to form sulfurous acid.
- This also contributes to the acid rain and hence this is quite harmful to the lichens and makes their survivability which is more difficult.
