Question

water pollution may be a direct contaminant or an indirect one? comment

Answer 1

Water pollution is a process by which various sources of water like river, lakes, sea, streams and water present underground get contaminated and can’t be used for drinking, washing or cleaning.

 It may be a direct contaminant if it is subjected to release of harmful fluids or toxic solids directly.

 It is an indirect contaminant if chemicals and fertilizers used in the fields are washed by rain and brought to water bodies.
