name any two water pollutants which are toxic for both plants and animals
Answers
The two water pollutants are :-
(i) Fertilizers
Fertilizers are washed away by the rain from the fields.This process is called the surface runoff.
This affects the food chain of the plants and animals. They are directly or indirectly affected .
The process of excess nutrient accumulation due to the surface runoff is termed as Eutrophication .
(ii) Oil spills
When accidentally , oil spills occur , it totally cuts off the oxygen content in water thereby killing several plants and animals .

I read in Brainly one answer stating CO₂ and SO₂ . That is completely wrong as they are air pollutants.
I don't know who verifies wrong answer but I am sure that my answer is correct.
Hope it helps !
