	c) Balancing pH levels in affected marine environments.		d) Strengthening the resilience of marine food webs.

Q.2	A manufacturing plant heavily relies on coal for energy generation. Over time, nearby vegetation starts to show signs of browning, and local residents complain about respiratory issues. What environmental impact is most likely a result of this plant's operation? 1. Soil enrichment 2. Reduced air particulate matter 3. Increased carbon sequestration 4. Airborne pollutants affecting plant and human health
	a) Only 4		b) Only 1
	c) Both 2 and 4		d) Both 3 and 4

Q.3	Mark and Sarah are discussing ways to conserve water at home. Mark argues that taking shorter showers helps save water, while Sarah believes that using a dishwasher consumes less water than hand washing dishes. In the context of water conservation at home, which statement aligns more with effective water-saving practices based on Mark and Sarah's discussion?
	a) Mark's shorter showers significantly conserve more water than Sarah's dishwasher usage.		b) Both Mark and Sarah's approaches contribute equally to water conservation efforts.
	c) Sarah's claim of a dishwasher using less water compared to hand washing dishes is more water-efficient.		d) Neither Mark's shorter showers nor Sarah's dishwasher usage significantly impact water conservation.
