Match each environmental pollutant listed on the left with its corresponding primary ecological or physiological impact on the right.
- Sulfur dioxide ()Combines with atmospheric moisture to form acid rain, causing soil nutrient leaching
- Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)Releases free chlorine radicals that destroy stratospheric ozone molecules
- DDT (Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane)Accumulates in fatty tissues and undergoes biomagnification up food chains
- Lead ()Inhibits heme synthesis enzymes, leading to anemia and nerve damage
Cevap
Sulfur dioxide matches with forming acid rain and soil nutrient leaching; Chlorofluorocarbons match with destroying stratospheric ozone via chlorine radicals; DDT matches with accumulation and biomagnification up food chains; Lead matches with inhibiting heme synthesis and causing nerve damage.
Each pollutant is correctly matched with its specific ecological or physiological impact: sulfur dioxide forms acid rain causing soil mineral leaching; chlorofluorocarbons decompose stratospheric ozone via chlorine radicals; DDT undergoes bioaccumulation and trophic biomagnification; and lead inhibits heme synthesis enzymes causing neurological and hematological damage.

Anahtar Kavram
Pollutants have specific biochemical mechanisms, pathways of dispersal, and ecological impacts across atmospheric, terrestrial, and biological systems.
