The correct answer is d) All of the above.
Excessive use of pesticides and fertilizers can damage vegetation, pollute waterways, and harm wildlife.
Pesticides are chemicals that are used to kill pests, such as insects, rodents, and weeds. When pesticides are used excessively, they can kill beneficial insects, such as pollinators, and can also contaminate soil and water. This can harm plants and animals, and can also make people sick.
Fertilizers are chemicals that are used to add nutrients to soil, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. When fertilizers are used excessively, they can pollute waterways and cause algae blooms. Algae blooms can block sunlight from reaching underwater plants, which can kill them. This can harm fish and other aquatic life.
In conclusion, excessive use of pesticides and fertilizers can have a negative impact on the environment. It is important to use these chemicals carefully and to follow the directions on the label.
