Question

What is the effect of pollutants on the plants such as lichens?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Air pollutants dissolved in rainwater, especially sulfur dioxide, can damage lichens and prevent them from growing. Many fuels contain small amounts of sulfur compounds. When these fuels are burned sulfur dioxide is released into the air. Sulfur dioxide causes acid rain that can kill plants and aquatic animals.
