Answer:

<em>The correct option is c) animal wastes and fertilizers</em>

Fertilizers contain toxic nitrogenous compounds which when dissolved in river become toxic for the aquatic life and pollute the river. The fertilizers are usually washed of into the rivers during flood or nay other circumstances.
