Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

Excess of nitrogen and phosphorus from farmlands flows along with the surface runoff (due to heavy rainfall) and mixes with nearby or adjoining water body, and then the problem of eutrophication arises. In eutrophication, the productivity of the lake increases due to excess of nutrients and as a result of this large number of phytoplanktons grows in the water body. This over growth of phytoplanktons causes depletion of dissolved oxygen.  

Hence, option A is correct

How does an increase in the use of coal affect biodiversity and air and water quality in a region?​
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

by developing more efficient methods of mining coal  

Explanation:

Coal is a combustible black or brownish black sedimentary rock. Coal is produced by the dead plant matter. It is a fossil fuel that is used for generating electricity in the thermal power plants, used as cooking fuel, and fuel in automobiles. The burning of the coal results in the liberation of carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide gases in the environment. These gases are responsible for causing the air pollution.

Developing more efficient methods of mining coal is not a conservation tactic related to coal consumption because the more the efficient mining will promote the excavation of the coal, which will further contribute to its extensive consumption and air pollution.
