Which of the following would be an example of an ABIOTIC effect of acid deposition?

• It decreases plants ability to absorb nutrients from the soil.

• These chemicals can build up in organisms at the top of the food chain and affect their overall health.

• It can erode coral in the oceans which affects the local food chain.

• It can cause leaching of metals (aluminum and mercury) from the soil.

What are the primary pollutants leading to acid rain?

• Carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide

• Sulphur dioxide and nitrous oxides

• Ozone and particulate matter

• Methane and carbon dioxide

Which of the following is an indirect effect of acidic rain on soil?
