Answer 22

Water pollution can get into oceans, rivers, lakes, streams, and ground water through human activities and by natural means.

Here is where and pollution and water cycle are related: Rain water picks pollutants from the atmosphere and then falls to the earth thus increasing the water pollution problems. Also when rain falls, street litters (cigarette butts, plastic bottles, candy wraps, etc.) can be picked up by overland flows and can be released into the sewer which ends up in rivers, streams, lakes, oceans. Fertilizers, chemical spills, septic tank failures, and sanitary sewer overflows can contaminate ground water. All these sources are connected to water cycle.

It’s also possible that a segment of a water body could lightly impacted by pollution while the other segment is severely impacted. Tidal influence, river flow rate, and/or shape of a water body can determine how quickly it recovers from the impact of pollution
