Answer:

The required answer is Option (c) Both the statements are correct.

Explanation:

Effects on health:

Sulphur dioxide can irritate your nose, throat, and lungs while also contributing to respiratory issues like bronchitis. It could lead to asthma episodes, phlegm, coughing, and wheezing. When you exercise, the impacts are worse. Cardiovascular disease and sulphur dioxide have been connected.

Effects on ecosystems:

Sulphur dioxide can contribute to acid rain, which has a negative impact on ecosystems. In the northern hemisphere, where trees and entire forests have been impacted, acid rain is a significant issue. In New Zealand, there is no acid rain. Sulfur dioxide pollution, however, can have an impact on the vegetation near industrial discharges and in urban areas. Due to their dislike of environments with sulphur dioxide in the air, lichens are useful bio-indicators of pollution.

Therefore, option (c) Both the statements are correct.
