Answer:

Effects on Plants and Animals

Also, this type of pollution often increases the salinity of the soil, making it inhospitable for the growth of plant life. Plants that are grown in polluted soil may accumulate high concentrations of soil pollutants through a process known as bioaccumulation.

★Soil Pollution★

Soil contamination or soil pollution as part of land degradation is caused by the presence of xenobiotics (human-made) chemicals or other alteration in the natural soil environment. It is typically caused by industrial activity, agricultural chemicals or improper disposal of waste.

Causes

The root cause of soil pollution is often one of the following:

Agriculture (excessive/improper use of pesticides)

Excessive industrial activity.

Poor management or inefficient disposal of waste.

Effects of Soil pollution

»Soil contaminants can exist in all three phases (solid, liquid, and gaseous). Therefore, these contaminants can find their way into the human body via several channels such as direct contact with the skin or through the inhalation of contaminated soil dust.

»The short term effects of human exposure to polluted soil include:

Headaches, nausea, and vomiting.

Coughing, pain in the chest, and wheezing.

Irritation of the skin and the eyes.

Fatigue and weakness.
